Taking Pre-orders. Shipping End of February.

Pirate Captain's Cutlass with Shell Guard – Favored by pirates of old, the pirate cutlass was the weapon of choice for close-quarters combat on the high seas. With its short, sturdy blade, the cutlass was designed for swift and efficient strikes, making it an essential tool for pirates during their many skirmishes. Not only practical but a symbol of pirate power, the cutlass became a defining weapon of the golden age of piracy.

Kingston Arms proudly presents a legendary rendition that sets a new standard in the sword market: the Shell Guard Cutlass. With a 23 3/4" blade that excels at both cutting and thrusting, this cutlass is perfectly balanced in the hand. The robust 15 1/2" fuller running down both sides of the blade enhances its strength while reducing weight for greater maneuverability. The stainless-steel shell guard provides hand protection in a simple yet elegant design, while the smaller thumb guard on the opposite side adds to its overall aesthetic and functionality.

The 4 1/4” leather-wrapped grip, accented with wire-wrapped ends, offers a firm and comfortable hold, ensuring optimal control during action-packed encounters. The stainless-steel pommel, buttoned for durability, serves not only as a decorative piece but also as a functional tool for utility—or even skull-cracking when the need arises!

Designed as a tribute to the infamous Blackbeard (Edward Teach), this pirate sword replica pays homage to the legendary pirate who was notorious for wielding cutlasses in battle. The shell guard hilt design takes inspiration from one of the most iconic illustrations of Blackbeard, evoking the golden age of piracy.

The black leather-wrapped scabbard, with its stainless-steel chape and locket, ensures safe storage and easy carry. The locket features a button for attaching to a sword belt, making this cutlass as practical as it is elegant. Perfectly balanced and eloquently designed, this cutlass is ideal for swashbuckling adventures or as a prized collector’s piece.
