Well shucks, I know about the "shouldn't really be carrying a pugio" thing, but I like 'em, and it's true my belt is decidedly 1st century. It is my first one, and was made with the most easily available parts (how's that for a whine?).<br>
<br>
We are actually working on getting 2 different styles of openwork 2nd cent. beltplates made, copied from real ones curtesy of our Optio Flavius. I'll make a new belt when I get those, in all likelyhood pugio free. I know it is better to represent the typical rather than the exception.<br>
<br>
On the pugio front however I still would like to try and make one and would be very grateful for any pictures you could e-mail me. Click on my name to get my address.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance<br>
