The centurion was the professional officer of the Roman Legion. Commanding roughly 80-100 men at a time, a centurion was expected to be the best soldier among them, wielding his Centurion Gladius with dexterity and skill, leading by example. Given that each centurion was well-educated and well-recommended, it stands to reason that most did not have a basic gladius. Instead, each likely had a more personalized blade that signified rank and taste, like this sword. Etched down the polished blade is a pattern not all that dissimilar to a Celtic knot. The hilt is primarily gray-steel with a beautiful rosewood finish on the grip. Molded into the steel-work on the guard and the pommel are leaf and vine designs, which carry over to the hard-wood scabbard as well. While this might not be representative of a gladius that a centurion might have carried, the Centurion Gladius definitely looks fit to be wielded by one today.

    It’s a really nice sword. Pretty great overall.

  2. Matthew R.

    the shipping was amazingly fast, I ordered on Monday (regular UPS ground) and the sword arrived on Wednesday. the ONLY thing I didn’t like about it is that there is absolutely no edge and no point on the sword. but would definitely recommend them

  3. Andrew D.

    Nice sword. Came as described in good time and in good condition

    Doesen’t look tacky or gimmicky or and makes for a great ornamental display as there is no edge or point to the Stainless Steel blade
