Legacy Arms Maintz Gladius Sword 29.5in.

Legacy Arms Maintz Gladius Sword 29.5in.. Some of the later versions (Like our Generation2/Legacy Arms version) were made with a straighter blade but still with the long point. Even later versions (like the Pompeii pattern) were not waisted and also had a shorter point but were just as effective - and easier to make. Both swords served side-by-side for many years and it was not uncommon to find 4th century Legionnaires carrying either models. The gladius is known as "the sword that conquered the world". High carbon blade hard wood handle. High polished steel spacer at the bottom of the handle for strength and durability.
