Historical and Cultural Note:

The Roman Gladius, meaning "sword" in Latin, was the primary weapon of Roman infantry from the 3rd century BCE to the 3rd century CE. Originating from the Spanish "gladius hispaniensis," this blade became synonymous with Roman military dominance. Its short, double-edged design allowed for deadly thrusts and efficient slashes, ideal for close combat within tight formations like the famous testudo formation. Carried proudly by Roman soldiers, the Gladius symbolized discipline, efficiency, and engineering mastery. Each blade was both a weapon and a symbol of Rome’s unstoppable force across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
