Secondary sidearm for 4th century centurion

[Robert Vermaat]

Pugios do reappear in the 4th century, so you might still go for that.

Oh yes? do enlighten me!!! :grin:

My mistake, they reappear during the 3rd century of course. I guess I was thinking of other knives and daggers and got my centuries mixed up.
Having said that, it seems that other 3rd c. weapons continued in use during the 4th century, the Roman army did not decommission arms or armour when new styles were introduced.
