I've got a tactical gladius up for grabs. Made this one custom for another member, but he ran into trouble and asked that this one go to someone else, so this one's now up for sale. Asking 350 -SPF- shipped CONUS.
It's 24" OAL, 7" handle and 17" blade. 3" wide at the guard. 5160 high carbon spring steel, professionally heat treated. It's got 8 mosaic pins in the handles, and black G10 scales over red G10 liners. High machine polish, kydex sheath, suitable for lashing to a pack.
The blade is just under 1/4" at the base, and tapers down to under 3/16" along the blade. Balance point is about 2.65" up from the top of the handle. I have no way to weigh it, but I think it's light enough to be quick and useful.
Handle is long enough for a medium size hand to get almost a full two hand grip covering the pommel, or a hand and a half for your average large handed person, for those extra tough zombie skulls.
I accept Cash/Check/Money Order (email me at nicholas.westmiles at gmail for shipping instructions), or Amazon Payments (a free alternative to Paypal, which I do NOT accept). Sword will ship USPS Priority insured with tracking. Thanks for your interest!
-edit- Wow, blurry pics! I'll get some better ones up soon.
