SW151 Porto Vecchio gladius

Description

This sword is made after the one found near Porto Vecchio, in Corsica. The embossed plates are replaced by a sun-looking drilled pattern, and brass patterns, as it will be the case for the Pompeii types gladii. Even if this artifact was identified as a Mainz type, our reproduction is now equipped with a straight Pompeii kind blade.
Scabbard made of wood, brown leather and brass. Grip made of wood and bone.

Total length 73cm, blade 52cm, 800g

× All these weapons have steel or bronze blades, but are not intended for fencing, unless otherwise specified.
