Give Roman Gladio Mainz Type With Scabbard, 1st Century.
Roman gladius, Mainz type, with scabbard, 1st century AD
The gladius, the standard weapon of Roman legionaries between the 3rd century BC and the 3rd century AD, was used in many different versions over the centuries. Although primarily designed for stabbing, the much-feared Roman shortsword was also an extremely effective cutting weapon. However, over the course of the middle and late Roman Empire, it was gradually replaced by the longer spathe.
This Roman sword is a reconstruction of a classic Mainz-type gladius from the early 1st century. The characteristic of this type of gladius, which owes its name to the place where the first such gladii were found, was its double-edged, slightly tapered blade with a long point.
The gladius offered here has a typical Mainz blade made of EN45 spring steel (neither tempered nor heat-treated) with a flat, diamond-shaped cross-section and a long, pointed tip. The cutting edges are unsharpened, and the continuous blade tang is screwed to the end of the handle (with a brass threaded nut). The handle consists of bone, a guard, and a wooden pommel. The guard is fitted with a brass plate on the side of the blade.
The Roman one-handed sword is delivered with a red wood/leather scabbard with brass fittings (a mouth band, three horizontal bands, edge fittings, and a V-shaped toe guard with palmette decoration, ending with a toe button). Cast brass support rings are attached to the two upper straps, allowing the user to carry their gladius like a true Roman.
This sword is designed as a collector's item or decorative object and is also ideal as an accessory, for example to complete your costume.
