NEW 01 Proclamation | Roman Gladius Sword | 13" Blade | CPM-MagnaCut Steel |Arizona Copper Finish
Choose options
Proclamation is inspired by the ancient Roman "Mainz" gladius. It is poetry written in steel, well balanced and fast, with a broad, double-edge blade gracefully tapering into a wasp waist before expanding again to a razor sharp spear point. The handle is full and comfortable, and long enough to wield the sword single-handed or hand-and-a-half.
With more than 50 years of blade making experience behind us, we specialize in crafting real, working swords for modern users. We’ve taken some of the best designs history has to offer and reimagined them, using the most advanced materials and techniques available.
Proclamation is built from heavy duty .210" CPM-MagnaCut, one of the toughest and most highly refined cutlery steels available, milled at one of the last surviving steel mills in the United States. CPM-Magnacut is highly resistant to corrosion or staining, and thanks to our own specialty heat treat, Dawson blades stay sharp up to twice as long as other premium steels. Rockwell C 61-62.
We stand behind our blades with an exceptional lifetime warranty, backed by a reputation for quality unparalleled through more than a half-century in the industry.
