This has to do with the pirate blade looks like a broadsword but is a cutlass

When the El Patron weapons first came out, there was a crude version of everything. A few weeks later Disney decided to limit Basic Access players to crude weapons, and a week after that, exactly 1 month after the El Patron weapons were released, they converted the crude version of the bayonets, muskets, and broadswords into common. The statement in the Grog Blog refered to above was the announcement of the change.

So yes, there were crude broadswords at one time, but they no longer exist. If you had one, after the change it would show as common and be locked out.

From the Grog Blog:

Loot for Basic & Unlimited Access Members May 21, 2010

With the expanded Sea Chest, Pirates are now able to carry more loot than before. However, there are some differences in which loot items Basic and Unlimited Access Members can fully use. Here are a few points you need to know about collecting loot after defeating an enemy:

Basic Access Members:

If you are a Basic Access Member, you will be able to collect all items from the loot drops.
Basic Access Members can only use Crude items. Please note:
There are no Crude Broadswords, Muskets, Bayonets, Daggers, and Voodoo Staves in weapons.
There are no Crude jewelry and tattoos. However, there are Crude clothing items which you can collect and use.
Basic Access Members can purchase and use healing tonics but can only create and use the first few potions in Potion Brewing.
When you get a weapon drop, check the weapon card to see if it is a Crude weapon. To use a weapon, you will need to train for it and reach the skill level to unlock it. Your weapon card will indicate the necessary requirements to unlock a weapon.

Nice find. The date that was posted was April 8th. 2010. So all the footage was from the test server. The weapons did not go live until April 15th. When they went live everything was changed.

Here are the release notes:

Release Notes - April 15, 2010
New Features:

* El Patron's Lost Weapons have been found!
* Hundreds of new weapon items can now be discovered in-game.
* Enemies and ships drop loot containers, which contain a variety of treasure.
* Sailing Items (Sea Charms) can be found in loot containers, which can help improve your sailing skills.
* New skills can be found on some of these new weapons. These skills can only be used when the weapons are being used. There are also two new types of skills:

Break Attacks
Powerful special attacks that can be used when you are in a tough battle. These skills only recharge when you take damage. Completing a Combo Attack also helps recharge a Break Attack.



Defense Skills
These skills protect the player by automatically blocking incoming attacks. Defense skills recharge normally and cannot be triggered manually by the player.



* Pirates now have 4 Weapon Slots, so you can choose which weapons you have equipped.
* Pirates now have 1 Sailing Item Slot, which gives the pirate bonuses while sailing or using cannons.
* Some new items are also available in stores for purchase.
* Pirates can now change their clothes, tattoos and jewelry without having to visit stores.

there are two sabres you can use, those are cool. During the free unlimited weekend, I liked the broadsword, but was not so thrilled with the muskets, bayonet or not.

There is a crude broadsword. My brother, who is basic, was using one. I'll post a pic of it later

They are all liars, and overrated. They are all talk, but I can bet they didn't level up to where they are.

I can care less about this opinion.

What I care about is if a crude Broadsword exists on open, and can be found.

Really? odd.. POTCO mentioned that there were no crude broadswords.
