Cutlass

From Forgotten Realms Wiki

A typical cutlass

A cutlass is a short and heavy sword with a slightly curved blade that can either be used in a stabbing or slashing manner. With a heavy basket hilt, it is more difficult for the wielder of a cutlass to be disarmed. Cutlasses are especially popular with pirates.[1]
