Gift Xanten Roman Gladius with Scabbard, 3rd Century.


Xanten Roman gladius with scabbard, 3rd century AD.
The gladius, the standard weapon of Rome's legionaries between the 3rd century BC and the 3rd century AD, was used in many different versions throughout the centuries. However, throughout the middle and late Roman Empire, this feared short sword was gradually replaced by the longer spatha.
The Roman sword offered here is equipped with an EN45 spring steel blade (neither hardened nor heat-treated). The cutting edges are not sharpened and the full-tang blade is screwed to the end of the handle (brass threaded nut). The handle consists of bone, with a wooden guard and pommel. The guard is fitted with a brass plate on the blade side. Unlike the classic Pompeii gladii with straight, parallel cutting edges and a short, triangular tip, the blade has a lenticular/almond-shaped cross-section and tapers gently towards the pointed oval tip. This special blade shape is based on an unusual find from Xanten, North Rhine-Westphalia, which dates back to the late Roman imperial period (approx. 3rd century AD), but is nonetheless difficult to classify.
The one-handed Roman sword is delivered with an artistically decorated wooden/leather scabbard with brass fittings. Unlike the blade, this scabbard is based on historical models of the Pompeii type. On the front, the locket is decorated with elaborate, partially tinned details: in two separate decorative fields, one can see depictions, partly openwork and partly engraved, of a helmeted figure with all their attributes. The chape with V-shaped edge, chape button, and horizontal band is decorated with a pattern of stylized spirals and topped by a palmette. Cast brass carrying rings allow the user to carry their gladius like a true Roman.


Details:
- Material: EN45 spring steel blade (carbon steel, not stainless), bone handle, wooden guard and pommel, brass retaining nut and hand guard
- Total length: approx. 69 cm
- Blade length: approx. 49 cm
- Blade thickness: approx. 4.6 mm / 3.7 mm (cutting edges approx. 1 mm)
- Handle length: approx. 20 cm (handle section approx. 9.5 cm)
- Maximum blade width: approx.
- Center of gravity: approx. 9 cm in front of the guard
- Incl. wooden scabbard with genuine leather cover and brass fittings
- Weight without scabbard: approx. 0.6 kg
- Weight with scabbard: approx. 1 kg
The above specifications may vary slightly from one specimen to another.
The steel used here is not stainless and may show slight signs of corrosion. We recommend caring for the blade and scabbard regularly, for example with Ballistol, a universal oil ideal for preserving steel products.
