Well, I think that might be a bit too far. Not everyone spends as much time learning useless information as I. I didn't see any quotes to read, but I am quite familiar with the design and purpose of the weapon in question.I guess my idea was rubbish. Did you read the quotes from Sharpe on the description of the sword?
I do think we have room in the history of swords and other weapons to have some more interesting pieces than just a cruciform arming sword for every single character, so outside-the-box thinking is a good thing.
