    Description

    The handle is faux ivory or imitation ivory.  Tax refund 25% off special.  It was 8, now 8.50  .   Roman Officer Ceremonial Parazonium Dagger worn by the Legate, Tribune, Consul and Camp Prefect.  It was an authority symbol to be sure.  I can make the scabbard either in the white shown or red.  They can also be aged afterwards for an extra fee.  These are made to order and take about two weeks to a month to complete.  This type of dagger was tucked into the Roman Officers other symbol of rank.  This Roman officer's belt Knot of Hercules Belt , wrapped around the body, tied above the stomach and made two lops up through the sides of belt and looped back down through it again.  I sell this belt as well in either red or wine (burgundy, maroon) color trimmed in gold and ending with metallic gold fringe for .  The Parazonium is always eagle headed but is also sometimes cradled in the left arm and
    was seen as a mark of rank as it was used to rally the troops.  It appears the normal procedure was for the officer to exchange his parazonium for a Gladius or a Spatha if he was directly threatened during a battle.  Added pictures are from the "Imperial Rome" event that show you how the Parazonium was worn through the Knot of Hercules belt when not carried.
