On cutlasses, in his 'THE PRINCIPLES OF THE ART MILITARIE, Practised in the Warres of the United Netherlands', (1639) Henry Hexham, who was QM to Lord Goring, has a plate showing a set of pikemans equipment, with a straight bladed sword (knucklebow, ring guard and straight quillions). It's labelled 'The Cutlas'.
