Avtually KT, you are quite right, even if you were just joking around.

Real pirates favoured hand knapped knives of all shapes and sizes. Stone, bone, petrified woods, whatever was handy. Hand knapped blades were sharp, jagged, left nasty wounds, and most importantly, DID NOT RUST.

oh I wasn't joking completely..having done some anthropology study while in college....

I think obsidian was the blade of choice for those who could find it, since it was sooo sharp!
