Yes, please! One with a Mainz pattern blade, or what the Romans called a "gladius Hispaniensis." Here's a page from Legio XX on the gladius.

It'd have to be historically accurate, which shouldn't be too hard since the gladius was a pretty simple design. I've really been wanting one of these, but all I could find so far were made by Indian companies like Deepeeka or Windlass Steelcraft which don't seem to have a good reputation for quality.

See these guys if you're serious about a quality Gladius:

I favor this one, the Fulham. But they also make a Mainz & Pompeiian.

But of course, if Sher, Kumar or Bura hammered one out, I'd prefer it.

Make it 36+ inches and full tang and me consider it seriously...barring a financial disaster.

:cool:

Can I get mine with a baseball instead? As Red Green says, "Soccer is very uh...european"

Uwinv, instead of looking at the pommel as a soccer ball just think of a nicely crusted, split, honey smoked, baked ham.:D :cool: :D

And to think I could've had this one.:( That's what I get for procrastinating.:rolleyes: :grumpy: :( :mad:

Add me to this list! However, due to the unreasonably stupid Sheeple laws here in Australia, I have to get myself a gunsafe to put away all my "Dangerous weapons". :mad::mad::mad:

Buuuuuuut... I think it's quite worth it!
 
So, which is it that we're signing up for?

Hey Danny, add me to the list for sure, since I missed this one by just minutes.

I have no idea how I'll pay for it (and have to definitely budget for at least one of the Foxes Folly's Yvsa is putting together with UB as a new run), but I'll work something out! I need to go on a diet anyway... (-:
