Porto Novo Gladius reconstruction
#1
Hello!

Yesterday i have finished an attempt of reconstruction of a Porto Novo type gladius. I have followed a interpretation of two tinned plates, covering the rear and front part of sheath instead the side guttering.

The blade i have used is the deepeeka ones, and the rest is made by myself. As there are two tutorials of sword making, i only will put the pictures, and if you have questions, please, dont hesitate to ask!

The sword in its scabbard:

It's a little dirty, i have to make more polish and cleaning...Tomorrow...
