Derived from the sword used by Celtic tribes of ancient
Iberia (Spain) and adopted by the Roman Legions, the Gladius, with its long,
narrow point and wasp waisted blade, was the scourge of the battlefield and
often the last thing seen or felt by Rome's enemies.
Ever popular, the Gladius is still in demand almost 2000
years later and is one of our most frequently requested swords to make, so we
have decided to offer a modern version of this ancient classic in a very
affordable machete/sword format.
Made from 1055 Carbon steel and hand sharpened to a
murderous point and wicked
edge, it offers 19" of unprecedented piercing and slashing power at a bargain
price. |

Sporting an extra wide, full tang for strength and a
classically inspired handle, it offers the standard guard and ball shaped pommel
of years gone by. Made of high impact Polypropylene, it's impervious to the
elements, rugged beyond belief and most importantly, comes compete with a sturdy
cordura sheath and belt loop.
