The Pugio and the Sheath,

sorry that I am not giving a long explanation of how to, I am very busy at the time, but it would be the same like the ones of our Friends

AWESOME shock:

Laudes from me Luc - excellent pictures too.

[LUCIUS ALFENUS AVITIANUS]

Very nice! One of the best i have seen.

THe construction of the pommel is very curious, with that brass border. Is based in a real one?

[sulla felix]

I was just looking at the same thing Cesar - I used organic (wood) material for my pugio.

[Gaius Julius Caesar]

Wow, that is pretty amazing work.... hock: 8)

Are you taking orders?

[LVCIVS VVLPES]

Sulla Felix, LUCIUS ALFENUS AVITIANUS

Thanks, :oops:

Yes, every detail is based on an original find,
The blade is based on the Ljubljana pugio, cause this one came as close as a drop of water to the X-ray pictures of the Auerberg pugio who is rusted in his sheath,

the grip construction is based on the Haltern pugio ( wood core covered with a thin brass foil ) and the Cetina pugio, cause the Auerberg grip is a rusty piece ( see picture - copy right protected ) and there is not much to see on the X-ray pictures

Gaius Julius Caesar,

Thanks, :oops:

sure I take orders

Cheers
