Hi
As I understand it there was one sword found at Pompeii amond the gladiator equipment with a blade around 30cm long that differed from the usual gladius carried by a soldier. The best I have come across is one crappy picture of it. Are there any good pictures, descriptions, drawings, or anything else? How about reproductions? If I try to search for gladiator sword reproduction I seem to get page and page of junk
