Roman Gladius reproduction

Roman Gladius, specifically a modern reproduction of the "Pompeii" style.
The Gladius was the iconic short sword of the Roman legionary, and this particular version is a favorite for historical reenactors and collectors.

The Blade: This is the "Pompeii" pattern, characterized by its straight, parallel edges and a short, triangular tip. This design became standard in the Roman military around the middle of the 1st Century AD because it was easier to manufacture and highly effective for thrusting in tight formations.

The Hilt: * Pommel & Guard: The large, rounded wooden "ball" at the top (pommel) and the semi-oval guard are classic Roman aesthetics.

Grip: The ribbed or "waisted" wooden grip is designed to provide a secure hold even if the hand is wet or sweaty.

The Scabbard:
It features brass fittings (the locket at the top and the chape at the bottom).
The four brass rings on the sides are historically where leather straps would attach to a belt or shoulder baldric.

Great for a collector, larper or for cosplay.
