About the Gladius

The gladius was the primary sword of Ancient Roman legionaries, renowned for its effectiveness in close-quarters combat. Its short, double-edged blade and sturdy hilt made it ideal for thrusting attacks, which were highly efficient and often deadly, especially when used behind the protection of a soldier’s shield.

While stabbing was the primary technique, Roman soldiers were trained to take advantage of any opening, including slashing at limbs or vulnerable areas during tight formations. Lightweight, balanced, and easy to wield, the gladius became a symbol of Roman military discipline and power, playing a central role in the expansion and defense of the Roman Empire.
