Cutlass, Hanger and Cuttoe

The cutlass, sword of the seas favoured by navy and pirates alike, was also used by some land infantry units but is best remembered as a sailor's sword. The cutlass was a shorter sword frequently used by officers as a close quarters battle weapon and may be known by some as a cuttoe which is derived from the french “couteau”. It was also referred to as a “hanger” until the 1800's, then adopted the name cutlass amongst sailors.

Sea Worthy Sword

This reproduction sword is hand forged with a tough, tempered high carbon steel blade which is as battle ready as the originals. The hilt has a solid brass heart shaped guard which is characteristic of the period. The scabbard is made from a sturdy leather completed with brass throat and tip. Made to the same specifications by professional sword smiths these swords rival the original produced for government defence contracts around the world.
