About this model

I made this full size Gladius sword in Sketchup using my imagination and a couple of pictures of Swords from the Roman Empire. Should be somewhat correct in size but I've never actually checked what size they should be. The whole sword fits on one Replicator 2 printbed. I've separated the sword into smaller pieces with interlocking parts for easy printing.
