"Though encrusted and decaying, Jones's sword could still cut swiftly and cleanly."

―Sir Thomas Faye

Davy Jones owned a broadsword which appeared to be some kind of mixture between the two types of Claymore swords. It had the short blade of a basket-hilted Claymore and the guard of a Highland Claymore with straight, down-sloping arms.

History

The sword was probably made in Scotland by an unknown Scottish blacksmith a few decades before Davy Jones fell in love with Calypso. Through unknown circumstances, Jones had the sword in his possession.

The sword attached to Davy Jones' belt.

He attached the sword to his belt where it was attached on his right side, but he was never seen using it. Throughout the conflict between Davy Jones and Jack Sparrow, with Sparrow's debt being due, Jones was seen with the sword on his belt. The sword was mainly seen during the Kraken's attack on the Edinburgh Trader.

After Bootstrap Bill Turner killed James Norrington, Jones took the latter's sword, which was used to stab Jones with, as his new weapon. The fate of the old sword is unknown.

Behind the scenes

Davy Jones' sword in the At World's End video game.

Davy Jones' broadsword first appeared in the 2006 film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. It was named "Davy Jones' Sword" in the video game adaptation for the 2007 film Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, where players could unlock after they've completed the Maelstrom level.

In Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio's original screenplay draft for At World's End, Davy Jones used his old sword to fight against Jack Sparrow during the skirmish between the Flying Dutchman and the Black Pearl and the final battle. By a late production draft titled Calypso's Fury, Jones took Admiral James Norrington's sword. Although Jones took Norrington's sword as his own in the final cut of the film, Jones never used the sword in the film's junior novelization, video game and comic book adaptation.
