Here's my Pompeii gladius. It started out as a regular Deepeeka 4211, with the hockey puck handle and square guard, neither of which I liked. I altered it, and with the exception of the finish, I'm happy with the results.
I made the scabbard from scratch. I was trying for something else but as this is my first try, I wound up with something else. Still seems like a 1st C Roman scabbard to me, so I'm happy.
