Caesar Maintz Roman Sword G2
Best Value & Quality
Most early versions of Roman swords were wasp waisted with a long point that combined cutting power and stabbing ability in one handy weapon. This Roman sword is a great example of the maintz design. Some of the later sword versions (like the Pompeii) were made with a straighter blade and a shorter point, but were just as effective - and easier to make.
Both Roman sword styles served side-by-side for many years and it was not uncommon to find 4th century Legionnaires carrying either model. The Maintz Roman swords are known as “the swords that conquered the world”. It features a full tang construction, high-carbon blade, hard wood handle. High polished steel spacer at the bottom of the handle for strength and durability. Perfect gift for men who have everything.

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.) |
