Ring Pommel Gladivs

[brennivs - tony drake]

Thanks Sam and Jim Jim the ring was engraved then I brazed silver solder into it, then polished back. The chape I have now three embossed patterns which all look like they have come from Mainz scabbard plates. The locket there are also three types made to the same construction pattern and also salvaged plates so maybe there are others lurking out their, waiting to be discovered. Their is a lot of Ring Pommel Gladivs I have come across the only thing is I have not come across a unit of Sarmation Infantry, so if anyone knows of one please post :-D otherwise it was a fashionable sword to have. I have married the sword with what would be a old type scabbard. Any more thoughts please post otherwise on with finishing another sword :woot:
Regards Brennivs
