The
Gladius sword was a short and powerful weapon designed primarily
for extremely close combat.
Roman soldiers were impeccably trained how to use the Gladius
and the Battle Shield together to inflict injury and death upon
their adversaries. This was the primary battle weapon of the
Roman foot soldier.
This large sword is 28 inches overall, with a 19 inch blade.
The blade is composed of carbon steel, which will not rust and
never needs to be oiled. The Gladius comes complete with a real
leather scabbard with brass fittings and accents.
You must be 18 years of age or older to
purchase this Roman Gladius Sword.
