Best Gladius on a budget? Jul 28, 2014 22:14:40 GMT

I've been after a good "Battle Ready" Gladius for a while now, but the best i could find on my budget is the Windlass Pompeii. It looks fairly decent and has a good review on SBG, but it's a bit "meh" compared to some of the other Gladii that have been available in the past and now unfortunately appear to be either discontinued or are simply rare as hens teeth. Namely, the Kris Cutlery Gladius and the Valiant Armory Praetorian.

Do any of you good folk know of a decent Gladius that i have overlooked in the $150 - $250 price range? I live in the UK so i would have to figure in at least $60 for shipping and i don't really wanna go too far over budget. There are a couple of Gladii available on these shores, but UK prices are extortionate to say the least.

Thanks for your help.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT
