Corrected entry: At Stirling right before Wallace drops his sword and picks up an axe you can see some black duct tape on his sword. A man then swings his sword at the exact position of the duct tape. This is an obvious test take where they rehearse the scene, and was not meant to end up on screen. (01:27:00)

Correction: That's not black tape. It's a leather wrapping which covers the ricasso on the sword. It's meant to move.
