Quote:Thanks Cesar and Jef - I shall do a bit more research on this. I understand what you are saying about the monolithic handle Cesar, but does this follow the shape of other pugio types, or is it more in the fashion of a mini gladius handle and pommel?
The jet handle from the Walbrook mithraeum is a monilithic smallish gladius handle. But the handle has more finger grooves than a regular gladius handle's four. About 6 grooves I think.
