Many a bloody-handed pirate of the 17th century clambered over the side of a gold laden galleon armed with a cutlass such as this. Known by many names- "hanger," "cuttoe," and "short saber" by infantry, or "cutlass" by sailors- this was an exceedingly popular short weapon. The steel basket protected the hand and could be used as an armored fist in the close confines of shipboard combat.
High carbon steel blade made by Windlass Steelcrafts through Museum Replicas. Steel pommel and leather-covered wood handle. Includes leather scabbard.
