The next project I am starting on is the rebuilding of a existing blade into a decent gladius. First I thought of rebuilding a Deepeeka but then I discovered the existence of the 'bare blade'-line from Albion (a lot cheaper then a finished one).<br>
<br>
Has anyone worked with this blade (or an other) and have any advice on reworking altering gladii? Especially the end of the hilt. How to secure the several pieces on the blade by peening the hilt?<br>
<br>
Hoping for your comments, greetings to you all.<br>
