There is already a gladius. Meet the S6. Ok, so it's not exactly a gladius. But pretty close.
i'll be in my bunk.
ETA: Please tell me you are taking orders for one of those. The raw color on the blade, and Sweetleaf-blue scales.
HA!
I am accepting orders, but not in that finish. That's the oxide layer from heat treat, but these are S7, which is not very stain resistant. So they do need to be DLC coated. Black, FDE, anthracite grey, or silver grey are the color coating options. Black, coyote, and OD are standard G10 colors I stock, but I can get you blue.
Stains are cool on some things. Like that, for example!
