Hi Guys,

I just got it into my head to get a rudis (wooden gladius), and am stuck choosing between the Purpleheart Armoury model ( http://www.woodenswords.com/WMA/gladius.htm ) with the cool engraving and the Kris Cutlery model ( http://kriscutlery.com/Kris/medieval/woodgaldius.html ), which has a bit more aesthetic appeal. Has anyone experience with the KC model? I'd like something that'd be able to hold up alright under training conditions (which wouldn't be a problem with the PHA version). Any help would really be appreciated! :cool:


Regards,
