The blade, for instance, has the traditional shape but is, unlike the old version, made of high carbon steel with spring tempering. It is fully sharpened on both edges and features a fine mirror polish. The point is long but robust enough to resist bending or breaking. It also features a rosewood grip, carved and decorated in classic style. The wooden scabbard is covered in black leather and accented with a throat, chape, and belt rings made of solid brass, complementing the sword’s historical aesthetic. Undoubtedly a spectacle, the Cold Steel® Gladius, like all Cold Steel swords, is a fully functional decorative piece ready to adorn your collection or be used in theatrical productions. For those interested in further enhancing the sword’s potential for stage performances or display purposes, custom modifications to make it safely dulled can be made available at an additional cost, ensuring its versatility for various applications.
