Nothing special or fancy but fun little modifications none the less.

Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.

I have the same black blade cutlass. What did you do to the guard?

I simply oiled it and scrubbed off the black, buffed it a bit and blued up the outer edge to give it some age. Scrubbed the end of the scabbard a bit but left some black again, to age it. Threw some brass star fish on her, a strap for my baldric, added some latigo for a peace knot and some piratey beads...voila!
