This weapon is carried by the Black Buccaneers crew. (See Teams Page) The Cursed Pirates Cutlass doesnt rank high for craftsmanship, but is deadly in the hands of an Undead Pirate. Along with the other swords, Primary fire deivers a slash and Secondary fire is used to parry or block an enemy's sword. More info on Sword combat to come.
