Wooden gladius, Rubis, 68 cm

Product description

Wooden swords are an excellent alternative to steel swords for training. They are cheaper than steel swords. Alternating training with a wooden weapon a few times a month will allow your expensive sword to last considerably longer. Wooden weapons are also well-suited to children. For reenactment groups and sword fighting schools, wooden weapons are particularly useful for teaching people how to sword fight, especially since beginners are still handling the sword incorrectly and may cause accidental damage to the blade. This wooden gladius has been based on original Roman swords from Antiquity, employed by the Roman legionaries or foot soldiers. The gladius is crafted from contrasting light and dark hardwood.
