I looked high and low for a blade that had a swash buckling feel to it. Nada! So, I had to create the sword based from different types and eras of history. A U.S, calvary cutlass handle and an Arabian curved blade. Then I fattened the blade, warped the curve more and added the battle notches and corrosion to give them the "used" look. Added one of my skull props, removed the jaw, knocked out a tooth, warped the shape, colored and added fonts with their own corrosive affects. . . Ba-bam! You have a pirate design.
