Designed for safe practice and historically inspired training sessions, this wooden gladius training sword is made after the classic rudis used by Roman legionaries. Before handling a real steel sword, recruits honed their combat skills with wooden swords to build strength, footwork and discipline. This replica brings that tradition back to life for performers and enthusiasts of ancient warfare.

Authentic Roman Form in Durable Steam Beech Wood: Handcrafted from strong steam beech wood, this Wooden Roman sword has the perfect balance of weight, durability and easy handling. Beechwood is known for its dense structure and resilience, it can withstand repeated practice without breaking easily. The sword has the classic broad Roman blade with a tapered point, a narrow guard and a rounded pommel for a secure grip and comfort.

A Reliable Tool for Training and Theatre: Whether used for Roman demonstrations, stage use, this wooden roman gladius acts as a safe alternative while still giving the look of the real gladius. Its lightweight nature makes it perfect for routines where safety and mobility matter. Subtle variations in grain and tone enhance its historical authenticity.
