Our "Praetorian" is
named in honor of the
Praetorian guard that
was created in 27 BC by
the Roman Emperor
Augustus. It is a Mainz
style Roman Gladius
sword. This type first
appeared shortly after
Mainz was founded as the
Roman permanent camp of
Moguntiacum in 13 BC by
the Roman general Drusus.
The swords made at Mainz
were generally sold to
the people of the lands
to the north of Mainz.
They are characterized
by a slight waist
running the length of
the blade and a long
point. The Praetorian
features a sharp, hand
hammer forged 19 and 3/4
inch leaf shape blade.
The handle is
alternating brass and
macassar ebony hardwood.
