I received this sword and it is clearly Pearl Dark Gray in color, have been looking
for one in Dark Bluish Gray. I can't find any sets on the website that include
this sword in Pearl Dark Gray, so where did it come from?

Oh I see you updated the number. The only thing I'm seeing are pirate sets
from 2004

Yes, my question is where this specific color (Pearl Dark Gray) came from as
it's not in the catalog at all. Perhaps it was an alternate possible color
in some sets and no one ever made note it?

Hard to tell, but it sure looks like that pirate falling off the stern is holding
a pearl dark grey sword. Set 7075

7075-1 (Inv) Captain Redbeard's Pirate Ship
132 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 1 Gear, 2004

and Light Bluish Gray.

At least those were the colors ours came with.

Sure looks like modern Pearl Dark Gray, but I can’t find a unique production
number for this part in that color. How does it look next to other PDG parts?

Here it is next to several other PDG parts, as well as a few Dark Bluish Gray
and Pearl Light Gray parts

If I had to guess, i'd say it came from build a minifigure (BAM) in LEGO
stores. They sometimes produce unique colours not in sets and not picked up by
BL.

That sounds plausible, I forgot all about BAM.
