This collection reproduces a wide range of arms from around the Western European continent from the 2nd to the 8th century. These Roman era short sword (gladius), dagger (pugio) are functional authentic museum reproduction of the originals.

     The CAS Iberia / Hanwei Gladius is based on the “waisted” pattern, its light blade and typical wooden guard and pommel arrangement making for a very quick sword indeed. The segmented bone handle and beautifully detailed scabbard with battle scenes in bas-relief complete a sword that any legionnaire or centurion would have been proud to own.

Key Features:
• Simple, uncluttered lines
• Fully functional
• Excellent handling

     The CAS Iberia / Paul Chen - Roman Dagger, or Pugio, replicates an original that survives in remarkably good condition in a European musuem. The classic broad, waisted blade is ridged and fullered for stiffness and lightness, and the full-width tang matches the profile of the grip. The grip and scabbard, like the original, are decorated in a silver on black niello style. A perfect piece for the Roman persona.

Key Features:
• Full-width tang
• Replicates an original
• Perfect piece for the collector
