4th or 5thc either or
just looking for good pictorial references and price checks
wow super nice and a super nice price tag hehehe. thanks! i had not seen these before
If you tell him not to put gold inlays, it would get cheaper... much cheaper!
I think 400 euro for a sword it's a reasonable price.
Indeed! The Roman riding sword! I didn't notice it was so cheap!!!
ya i guess 527.95 usd isnt that bad for a sword. its less than an albion yet not much more than a del tin. hmmmmmm
AH4221 3rd C. Roman Sword
http://www.deepeeka.com/store/comersus_ ... oduct=5409
hmmm i had never seen this one before. is it new? its not like the other late late roman sword due to it actually has double fullers and not just lines, the hilt and pommel are different as is the chape
Chuck, also take a look here
http://www.binsfeld-replikate.de/gladius3.htm (look at the bottom of the page).
480 euros is quite reasonable for this kind of quality from a German craftsman, I think. I am tempted to consider it myself.

Beware that Binsfeld's prices aren't correct on some pages. It says starting at 480euros, this means that his cheapest sword will cost that much. The spatha at the bottom of the page may well be a lot more expensive... Sorry :?

Yes, I have thought about this too
!
Binsfeld´s recos are tough! He´s a very skillfull handcrafter and he is able to hit the "historic impression"!
EUR 480,00 is for a german handcrafter a cheap price. (I like is "celtic spatha"!
)
Guys, not wanting to shatter your dreams but take a look at my post above... All the helmets and pugiones on his website were priced 'ab 480€' too until some time ago. Look at the prices now... Some parts on his website have incorect pricing. Send him an email and you'll see what I mean...
I see your post, Marcus. :wink: (But i know also the german "usus"!")
The prices of the pugiones were rectified because someone :roll: asks him for exact prices.
So, i agree, better ask him for confirmation.
