The backsword is one of the two special items that can be obtained from the box edition of Puzzle Pirates.

This item cannot be traded or placed in a trade window (for example, to show a friend the drop pattern). Also the backsword cannot be placed in a sword rack. It does not age and cannot be wagered in a skellie or zombie fight. If you do not have the box edition, you may never own a backsword. If you do own the box edition, you can only get one backsword per pirate and you forfeit the chance to get a backsword with a particular pirate if you choose the savvy hat.

According to Cleaver, the backsword's drop pattern is just okay.^[1]

To claim the backsword, register the key code from your box edition of Puzzle Pirates on the account page^[2]. From then on, any pirates created under your account will have a new mission called "Claim your inheritance." Select that mission and follow the instructions to claim either the backsword or savvy hat. When the backsword is selected, a randomly-colored backsword is placed in your Booty panel.
