Osprey Gladiators - Wisdom/McBride
#47
<br>
<br>
I want to add that Junkelmann's reconstructions are pretty good. If anything I would have liked to see the fore end curved slightly, making the blade shaped a bit like a "tick mark", with the fore end curved forwards. Roman images of thraeces show the sword with this strange blade form quite often. Images of "sicae" with dead straight fore ends are comparatively rare.<br>
