This Classic Pirate Cutlass was a short sword with an overall length of 32" and was the swashbuckler's favorite. The 26.5" blade is forged of carbon steel, with a 3/4 length blood grove and measures 1 3/4" at its widest. The handguard is a single piece of steel that flares out to over 4" with a 5.5" stained hardwood handle.
