Hi all,



I've discussed the Mexican machete / so called "espada ancha" a bit in the last few days, and it got me thinking : what was the last traditional (non military / regulation / issued) sword used by Europeans or Europeans descent in colonial states?



The Spanish colonial short swords mentioned above might be a good contender, but I'm curious if there is others I don't know about.



Thanks in advance for your opinion! 🙂
