The Cold Steel Gladius Machete stands as a testament to the enduring allure of classic design married with modern engineering. As part of Cold Steel's acclaimed hybrid sword/machete series, this model captures the essence of ancient weaponry while delivering contemporary performance that is hard to match.
Crafted from spring-tempered 1055 Carbon steel, the blade boasts exceptional toughness and resilience. Each machete undergoes meticulous hand sharpening at Cold Steel's facility in Ventura, California, ensuring a keen edge ready for action straight out of the box.
The Gladius Machete harks back to historical designs with its traditional guard and ball-shaped pommel. However, it surpasses its predecessors by incorporating full-tang construction—a feature that significantly enhances strength and durability. The handle is constructed from high-impact Polypropylene, rendering it nearly impervious to environmental challenges and making it exceptionally robust.
For ease of carry and readiness in any situation, each machete comes equipped with a durable Cor-Ex sheath complete with a belt loop. This thoughtful addition ensures your tool remains accessible whether you're navigating dense underbrush or simply need reliable cutting power on demand.
The Cold Steel Gladius Machete isn't just another tool; it's an homage to ancient craftsmanship perfectly suited for today's demands—an investment in reliability and function where tradition meets innovation seamlessly.
