Thank you, David.
I think I got your point.
I've noticed something else. While other Pompeii gladii blade width is 5 cm and more, this one is only 4.3 cm. Maybe you know that at this model there is a slight waist, it is not paralel like most of the examples.
My concern was that the majority of the models I found are of weight 800gr and more. On the other hand, Albion state that this one is made after the Gutmann gladius and this is what attracted me at first place.
