Hey Dan. If you're looking for a good wooden gladius I think there is a better source.

You're right that there is nothing wrong with buying those types of blades when you know better and I wouldn't fault someone for it, not everyone has a huge bankroll for reenacting. My grudge is more with the sellers that play off peoples curiosity and ignorance. Instead of educating they intentionally scam people for their own benefit.
