A Cutlass is the weapon of choice for the 9 out of 10 of the world's best pirates... --- Mystery Runner, Marketing Executive at Ares Low-Tech Pirates and their mothers agree: A fine edged cutlass it's gotta be! --- Advertising Slogan for Pir8 brand Mono-Cutlass Statistics: Treated as a single-edged basket-hilted (see Compendium 1, Swashbucklers, or Low-Tech) broadsword . It's a single-edged sword, usually with a basket hilt. The blade curves back to a fine point at the end in order, partially for visual intimidation and also to brace for impaling up under the rib cage and into the vital organs. The single edged design allows for greater strength in parrying and swinging impact, as the back of the sword is thicker. It also allows for blunt impact along the back of the sword if needed.
