Nylon Roman Pompeii Gladius for HEMA - Steel Finish

Synthetic plastic waster suitable for HEMA or WMA fighting.

Tough and durable, but with a slight flex, this weapon is a brilliant approximation of steel weaponry without the associated risks or weight. Perfect for hard sparring, technique training or simulated duels, this waster can dish out as much damage as it can weather. 

This waster also features a steel finish, in the sense that the nylon pigment is steel grey, making it look more realistic than other wasters.

This design is an emulation of a Gladius, the classic weapon of legionaries and footsoldiers of the Roman Republic and Empire. This gladius is based upon the Pompeii Gladius.
