A pennant form with two crossed swords is mentioned in H. Gresham Carr's book
(see also Saudi flags with two crossed swords).

An "Isosceles triangle Two-Swords" variation of the Saudi Arabia "Civil (Merchant) Ensign" or "Merchant Marine" flag. Size: 64"-wide x 74"-long (in-seam) x 96"-side length (both sides have equal length = isosceles triangle). The white anchor and crossed-swords have been machined stitched onto the green-field cloth on both sides. On the back-side, the anchor's s-rope-design at the bottom of the anchor's s-rope is pointing towards the hoist on both sides; or to be clearer, the backside matches the front. There is a rope-halyard sewn into the shorter, white 64-inch-wide hoist side. This flag was removed from a Japanese merchant-marine ship in Seattle, WA, c. 1975.
