You're right, I have found more about Hollywood productions of pirates than the actual pirates that once roamed the bluffs. There are very few pirates that wandered onto this coast, but that just makes the handful of stories that much more interesting. There was hardly any naval presence in this corner of the Pacific, so what enticed those pirates to travel up this far North? A few blades? Really! If you do not mind, I'm rather keen to take a look and see if the sword I am looking for is among those blades.
