The gladius was the sword of choice for the Roman legions, and many gladiators also chose to use the double-edged sword when they were fighting for their freedom and lives in the Colosseum.After a gladiator in ancient Rome had won his freedom, he was awarded a wooden gladius like this one, called a Rudis, as a symbol of his freedom. Our Rudis is a great retirement gift for military personnel or police officers.

Our training gladius is based on the classic Roman gladius and made entirely of hardwood. The pommel and guard are darker for visual interest. If you plan to use this wooden gladius as a training sword, be careful: the blade is made of wood but it does have a sharp point.

Stage combat swords have to meet different requirements than battle-ready swords do. In order to minimize the risk of injury from cuts and thrusts during stage combat with swords, this elegant two-handed stage combat sword has back edges that are at least 3 mm thick everywhere and it even has a rounded point.

Despite its respectable size, our two-handed stage combat sword is surprisingly manageable. This is primarily due to the fuller that runs more than three-quarters of the length of the sword, the two-handed grip covered in red fabric, and the large, riveted wheel pommel that serves as a counterweight to provide this two-handed stage combat sword with excellent balance. Clear, straight lines give this stage combat sword its simple beauty. It includes a genuine leather scabbard with a mount and chape.

Stage combat rapiers have to meet different requirements than battle-ready rapiers do. In order to minimize the risk of injury from cuts and thrusts during stage combat with fencing weapons, this golden stage combat rapier has back edges that are at least 3 mm thick everywhere and it even has a flattened point.

It only weighs a little over a kilogram, so our golden stage combat rapier is light and highly manageable. Good balance is not the only characteristic that makes this stage combat rapier manageable – its grip is also very important. Because it is wrapped with both smooth and braided golden wire, it is especially comfortable to grasp. The delicate knuckle bow and finger guard give this rapier a graceful, romantic look and also provide finger protection when a technique requires them to be placed above the crossguard. The pommel is bolted on. Of course this golden stage combat rapier comes with a leather scabbard with a golden mount and chape.
