Centurion Roman Gladius G2
This simple Roman sword design is based upon historic Roman swords dating 50 A.D. and later. The blade shape was adopted to be used as a slashing sword instead of the earlier thrusting blades. It features a full tang construction, high-carbon blade, hard wood handle, and has a high polished steel spacer at the bottom of the handle for strength and durability. And remember, a Roman sword makes a perfect gift for men, home decor or Roman soldier costumes.

Functional Swords / Battle-Ready Swords
Made of high-carbon steel and quality craftsmanship, these Roman swords are of SCA-LARP quality.
Each blade is hand forged from 5160 or 10/60 carbon steel for strength and beautiful lines, and individually finished to endure tight fitting handles and a fabulous finish. (Look closely to see the hammer marks from hand forging.)
A full length leather scabbard is included free of charge.
Sword Cleaning Instructions Regular use of sword cleaning kits to maintain high carbon steel swords helps prevent deterioration. (Initial cleaning of this sword is needed to remove protective coating.)
Manufacturers Note: Blades made of 3/16-inch tempered steel are designed to be slightly more ridged than thin spring steel blades (whippy blades) from other manufacturers. This is not a defect, but by design to allow for a difference in blade control during swordplay, etc. (All testing is a buyer liability.) |
