roman gladius hispanicus sword. Gladius is a Latin word for sword. Early ancient Roman swords were similar to those used by the Greeks. From the 3rd century BC, the Romans adopted swords similar to those used by the Celtiberians and others during the early part of the conquest of Hispania. This sword was known as the Gladius Hispaniensis, or "Hispanic Sword."

  • @MrShadeviperx yes, toledo is famous for making the best swords in the world..

  • @braven117 yeah, i heard that toledo is renown for its sword-making skill

  • @MrShadeviperx Next time i will buy a Marto Roman Gladius forged in Toledo Spain. The word Toledo in the blade is a plus instead of Made in China.

  • @braven117 yeah it's bs, i hate false advertising with a passion. the scabbard is some cheap plastic material but the sword looks good.

  • @MrShadeviperx Mine too, the damn seller changed the color at the last minute ! Fucking bastard !
