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 short sword was also a 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 classical 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 gladii of this type were found, was its double-edged blade, slightly tapered and with a long tip.



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 not sharpened and the continuous blade tang is screwed to the end of the handle (brass threaded nut). The handle consists of bone, guard and wooden pommel. The guard is fitted with a brass plate on the blade side.



The one-handed Roman sword is delivered with a red wooden/leather scabbard with brass fittings (a mouth band, three horizontal bands, edge fittings and a v-shaped upper with palmette decoration, ending with an upper button). There are cast brass support rings attached to the two upper straps, allowing the user to carry his 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.
