Guys, i feel like a midget between you two monsters of knowledge
I just dare to come in to provide some quorum to the thread, hoping not to pee much out of the pot with my adventurous approaches.
Let me attach here some engravings from my GREAT BOOK OF PIRACY AND CORSO, as a support to my fantasy of a Pirate sword form.
Worthy of note, although not necessarily a factual evidence is that, some of these engravings were made in the period, namely those of Bartolomeu Portugues, Rock Brasiliano and Francisco Lolonois, as illustrations depicted in the work written by Exquemelin, a XVII century pirate surgeon.
