This short and broad slashing sword, whether straight or slightly curved, was the weapon of choice for many a sailor and pirate. Distinguished by its solid cupped or basket-shaped guard, the Cutlass was a mainstay naval weapon during the Age of Sail.Historical Notoriety: Cutlasses, with their rich maritime heritage, have earned notoriety mostly for their association with pirates. More than a mere weapon for combat, pirates employed these sabres as instruments of fear and coercion. The very sight of a pirate brandishing his cutlass could force surrender from opposing crews. For those unfortunate souls subjected to interrogation, the flat of the blade served as an additional motivator for compliance.Exquisite CraftsmanshipBlade: Meticulously forged from pattern-welded Damascus steel, the blade stands as a testament to the skills of ancient smiths. With a layering process that involves folding the steel five times, the blade possesses a staggering 352 layers. This Damascus steel, renowned for its hardness and resilience, boasts a Rockwell hardness rating of 55-56 HRC. Embedded within these layers is the high carbon 1095 steel, known for its edge retention and strength. The outcome? A blade that not only holds a razor-sharp edge but can also endure the rigors of intense combat.Handle: Complementing the blade's magnificence is a handle made of durable wood, beautifully accented with brass bolsters. This design ensures a comfortable grip while adding an element of elegance to the overall weapon.Sheath: Every cutlass comes with a leather sheath, ensuring its protection and offering ease of transport.SpecificationsHandle: Wood, accentuated with Brass BolstersLength: An impressive 23"Rockwell Hardness: 55-56 HRCSheath: Crafted from Premium LeatherBlade Composition: Damascus Steel with layers of Carbon Steel #43 and #40 and High Carbon Steel 1095Layering Process: Ranging from the 1st Fold at 22 Layers to the 5th Fold culminating in 352 LayersThe Cutlass - more than a weapon, it's a piece of history.
