Fantastic piece of work the use of different colours adds to the look of the overal hilt . When you look at some of the late sword hills, they still wanted a sword that had a bling to it. It also shows you out there that you can buy a plain sword and make it special
first class once again Patrick

Here is one of my recent Gladius Swords. This one I call "The Optio" A 1st Century Roman FULHAM Gladii. This one was commissioned and sold.

This is the latest Legionary "Grunt" Mainz Gladius. "Grunt" because there are no frills... just a basic "Plain" Mainz Gladius
It has an inset Bronze Guard Plate. European Boxwood Guard and Pommel, 8 sided Chiseled 4 finger Grip carved from Holly and a Bronze Pommel Finial

Hi,
Here's my Deepeeka Fulham gladius with the hilt redone by me. The guard and the pommel are American Walnut and the grip is British holly, all coated with linseed oil - probably not very accurate choice of woods but I just really like them.
