Emitor Gladius

The flared lip does exactly what it’s supposed to—my hand never slides up during a spin, and those accent details catch the light nicely. Weighing just over a third of a pound, it balances well without making the hilt feel front-heavy.

The two-piece construction feels rock solid when I twist it onto the hilt, and at 0.31 lbs it balances perfectly without dragging the blade down. The flared accent details catch the light just right during spins, making it look way more expensive than it is.

The flared lip really does keep your hand safe during heavier swings, and the accent detailing catches the light beautifully when it’s mounted. Weighs next to nothing at 0.31 lbs, so it doesn’t throw off the balance one bit.
