Historical Note:
The Mainz Gladius was a standard-issue Roman military sword during the early Roman Empire (1st century BCE to 1st century CE). Originating in the Roman outpost of Mogontiacum (modern-day Mainz, Germany), this type of Gladius featured a slightly broader blade with a pronounced waist and a triangular tip — ideal for both cutting and thrusting in close combat. It was favored by Roman legionaries for its lethality in tight formations, often used in conjunction with a scutum shield. Our hand-forged interpretation pays tribute to this historic weapon with precision and strength.Specification | |
