A detail most NW players probably never noticed

I present to you, something 80% of you have probably never noticed. The cock sword.

Amazing, right? Something so obvious yet barely ever noticed. Vince, you troll, you. Been laughing at us for all this time because little did we know, we had been "choking the chicken" in public all this time.

I've noticed it. Now that there is a thread on it though...

Glorious. Simply glorious.

French sappers were issued sabres with cockerel-head pommels, though they were widely replaced with eagles and lions during the Imperial period, what with the cock being a symbol of the old republic.

Swag from what? they certainly looted many symbols and images from the ancient Roman republic, but the Gallic cock is a traditional symbol of France.

Ha ha ha ha ha.. it's funny, because it's obviously not what Docm pointed out. I mean, they wouldn't put it there because it was simply what the sappers used, right? That certainly can't happen in this day and age. Ha ha ha, it's a cock, guys!

Congratulations, Crunch.

Isn't it a symbol of ferocity and never backing down?

Thank you for brightening my day with this information.


I am kidding. Interesting! A detail I would never notice unless I actually knew to look.

I must say I have penetrated many a body with it.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.
