Product information "The Pompeii Gladius"

Circa 100

The Roman Army's approach to warfare was direct and pragmatic. It chose the Gladius as its principal sidearm because it was practical and efficient and excelled in any close combat situation. The later versions (we offer you the Pompeii) were not waisted and had a shorter point but were just as effective and easier to make. This is the sword that conquered most of the known world. Its blade is made of high carbon steel. The Pompeii Pattern Gladius also features a maple handle

Habe mir diese Waffe vor geraumer Zeit gekauft und bin bei dem günstigen Preis und der Verarbeitung sehr zufrieden. Das Einzige, was mich stört, daß die römischen Schwerter vom Typ Gladius am Knaufende verschraubt sind! Es wäre schön, wenn die Hersteller diese Waffen am Kaufende vernieten würden. Aber ansonsten ist diese Waffe einwandfrei.

Ein wirklich gut verarbeitetes Schwert, die Klinge ist stabil und das wunderbar ausgewogen. Selbst ohne Schild gut zum Schaukampf selbst gegen Zweihänder geeignet! 5 Sterne gibts trotzdem nicht, weil die Scheide im Gegenzug sehr billig wirkt und eindeutig nicht auf die Klinge angepasst wurde, sodass das Schwert beim tragen bis zu 2cm hin und her wackelt. Trotzdem klare Kaufempfehlung!

Classic Medieval Sword

This sword is an Oakeshott Type X with a Type I pommel and a Type VII crossguard. The long and wide fuller on this blade lightens the overall sword and makes it possible to deliver fast and shearing cuts capable of cutting through the mail and padding that were worn during the period. The long guard offers good protection from an opponent's shield or blade while the classic wheel pommel brings the sword very nicely into balance. This type of sword was in service for a long period of time throughout all of Europe. Details: Total length: 39 1/2" Blade size: 33" long, 2" wide Weight: 3 lbs.

Late 15th Century Arming Sword - Royal Armouries Collection

This arming sword in the Royal Armouries Collection dates to the late-15th century and is likely to be of English provenance. This type of sword is a medium-to-high status sidearm of the late-15th century and into the early 16th century, and would have been worn both with and without armour. It would have been a knightly backup weapon, used in combat both on foot and mounted. This sword shares some obvious similarities with the Westminster Abbey sword, which has been long associated with Henry V (but now believed to be from Henry VII's funeral achievements). It also shares a number of close similarities with other swords from English churches, and from representations of swords on English funeral effigies and brasses. Due to the state of preservation, it has been suggested that this sword may indeed have been taken from an English church monument in past centuries, where it was likely originally deposited in the late-15th century. Our replica is a precise, faithful replica, manufactured traditionally in very similar ways to the original. It features a robust cut and thrust Oakeshott Type XVIII blade of just over 30 inches, long curved quillons with characteristic terminals, short grip and prominent solid wheel pommel. The original has some unusual floral engraving at the base of the blade, which we have not replicated, because unfortunately on the original it is too damaged to reproduce with any certainty. The sheath is made with a wood body and covered with leather. The tip is reinforced with a brass chape that features ornate cut-outs and an acorn tip. At the throat, the leather extends upward and covers part of the guard at the ricasso. Made by Windlass Steelcrafts, the original can be seen in the Royal Armouries Collection, Object Number IX.1426. Includes a certificate of authenticity on heavy stock SPECIFICATIONS: Overall Length: 37-1/4" Blade Length: 30-5/8" Blade Width at Ricasso: 1-3/4" Blade Distal Taper: 1/32" Weight: 2 lbs, 13 oz Material: 1075 high carbon steel Edge: Double-edged with bevels, unsharpened Balance Point: 3-11/16" from guard

Roman Pugio

The distinct shape of the Pugio blade was excellent for a close quarters fight, and was used throughout the legions. Although swords and knives were generally not worn by civilians within the boundaries of the \"Pax Romana\", barbarians and bandits were certainly to be found in the outlands, and a merchant or trader best go armed. No doubt many an old legionnaire must have found it easier to keep his balance with the familiar weight on his hip as he worked his farm in new won territory. A wood hilt is paired with a fully tempered high carbon steel blade. Comes complete with a wood scabbard covered in leather with brass parts. Based on remains in the British Museum. Details Total length 48,9 cm Blade length 31,12 cm Blade width 5,4 cm Blade thickness 0,4 cm Weight 0,4 kg
