The Roman Gladius Sword Replica by JW SteelCrafts captures the iconic shape of ancient Rome's most famous sword. It measures 24 inches overall, with an 18-inch blade and a 6-inch wooden handle, built on a strong full-tang frame. The short, straight, broad blade gives it real historical presence on a stand or wall.
This handcrafted piece is made as a display sword and collector's item, ideal for Roman-themed décor, history lovers, reenactment styling, and gifts. Because each sword is hand-finished, small differences in detail give every piece its own character.
The gladius was the short sword carried by the soldiers of ancient Rome, central to the Roman legions for several centuries, roughly from the 3rd century BC to the 3rd century AD. Its short, straight, broad blade was designed for close-order ranks and became a defining symbol of Roman discipline and organization. The very word "gladiator" comes from gladius, tying the sword to the arenas of Rome as well as its armies. Famous types like the Pompeii gladius are still studied today. This handmade replica honors that legacy as a display and collector sword, valued for its historical shape and presence rather than any field use.

They are a little larger than I thought, however, they will be perfect for what I need them for.

They serve the purpose
Color: White-4pack
These corner shelves are just what I wanted to hold our modem and router on one and a small lamp on the upper. The little ledge makes me feel confident that the devices won't easily be knocked off accidentally. My husband, a retired contractor, installed them so they are level.
They are made of pressed board with a laminate veneer of some sort. The laminate arrived damaged on one of the shelves, but I wanted to use two of them right away so a dab of paint will cover the damage if it's placed in an inconspicuous spot.
