If a Kutlass notices [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]], it runs toward them and tries to slash them with its swords. If the Kutlass misses the Kongs, its swords get stuck in the ground, but it pulls its swords free and lifts them back up after a few seconds (green Kutlasses generally take less time to get their swords unstuck). Kutlasses always hold up their swords except when they attack. The Kongs take damage if they are slashed by Kutlass's swords or try to jump on Kutlass while its swords are up. A Kutlass is vulnerable to a jump attack if its swords are on the ground. A Kutlass can be defeated either from an object being thrown at it (such as a [[barrel]] or a [[Cannonball|kannonball]]), from a [[team up]] throw, or an attack from an [[Animal Friend]], such as [[Squitter]]'s web projectiles. In the cast roll, a Kutlass appears as part of the [[Kremling Kuthroats]]. Kutlasses have a variant named [[Klank]], which ride [[Roller Coaster]]s in the amusement park levels.


'''Kutlasses''' are small enemies and members of the [[Kremling Krew]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They are one of the enemies who do not reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''.

Kutlasses appear as either yellow or green. They wear a pirate hat and a black vest, and carry two large {{wp|cutlass}} swords around with them, hence their name. Official artwork also shows that Kutlass has three toes on each foot, and the Kremling Krew insignia and red feathers on its hat. According to the game's manual, Kutlasses ordered their swords from an infomercial, which looked smaller on television. Their swords are about the height of their body.

Kutlasses appear in the later levels. If a Kutlass notices [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] it sprints toward them, attempting to slash them with their two swords. If the Kutlass misses the Kongs, its swords hit the ground, though within a few seconds, the Kutlass lifts up its swords again. Kutlasses almost always hold up their swords, which protect them the [[Kong]]s' jump attack. By attempting to jump on a Kutlass, the lead Kong gets injured, and the player loses that Kong. Kutlasses are only open to a jump attack is when its swords are on the ground. Even if their swords are up, Kutlass can still be defeated by a throwable object (such as a [[barrel]]) or a [[team-up]] throw. They can also be defeated by an [[Animal Friend]].

Kutlasses are enemies appearing in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest only. They are small Kremlings wield two large cutlass swords roughly the size of their body. Kutlasses have either a yellow or a green body, the latter of which has quicker movements. They wear a black vest and a pirate hat which has the Kremling Krew insignia and red feathers on the side. Artwork shows that Kutlasses have three toes on each foot. They are said to have ordered their swords from an infomercial, which looked smaller on television.[1] Kutlasses are named after cutlass swords, but with a 'k' in place of a 'c'. If a Kutlass notices Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong, it runs toward them and tries to slash them with its swords. If the Kutlass misses the Kongs, its swords get stuck in the ground, but it pulls its swords free and lifts them back up after a few seconds (green Kutlasses generally take less time to get their swords unstuck). Kutlasses always hold up their swords except when they attack. The Kongs take damage if they are slashed by Kutlass's swords or try to jump on Kutlass while its swords are up. A Kutlass is vulnerable to a jump attack if its swords are on the ground. A Kutlass can be defeated either from an object being thrown at it (such as a barrel or a kannonball), from a team up throw, or an attack from an Animal Friend, such as Squitter's web projectiles. In the cast roll, a Kutlass appears as part of the Kremling Kuthroats. Kutlasses have a variant named Klank, which ride Roller Coasters in the amusement park levels.

In the remake, Kutlasses and Klanks use a higher pitched edit of voice clips used by Koshas in Donkey Kong 64.
