The Roman Gladius Sword by Marto of Toledo Spain is a Roman Gladius sword of the Mainz type, used between the 2nd century b.C. and the 1st century A.D. This one, particularly ornated, replicate sword could really have belonged to a very important person like the great Julius Caesar. The typical shaped steel blade has black decorations along its middle line. The brass plated cast metal is ornated with figures sculpted in relief, whilst the handgrip is in anatomically worked wood.
