\nThe classic Pompeii Gladius may be a simple form of the Gladius, but its design ensured that it was a mass-produced weapon with admirable thrusting ability that could be surprisingly effective and chopping and cutting. Stout and dependable, Gladii such as this brought the banners of Rome to the corners of the known ancient world.
