I would question the idea of all the knives use to murder Caesar were of the same shape and design. I also would wonder why it would be true because of the nature of how his death occurred. Were all the conspirators provide a knife or used their own personal knife? There may have been some Pugio knives used but unlikely all of them. I would like to suggest exploring the history of the Spanish Navaja in a future video. It seems connected to similar French knives used for various purposes. Being in possession of one once had the penalty of death connected to it.🤔

Agreed. I expect there was a mixture of various blades as mentioned. However I expect that the blade Brutus used was a Pugio. He was the one who commissioned the coins and I suspect that if he put his face on one side to brag about killing Caesar, one of the knives on the other side was his. I would argue that the pugio became very symbolic of the assassination of Caesar. The Navaja is already on my to-do list. Mainly I need to track down source material for that. Thanks for commenting!

To be in the Senate, a Roman had to be a citizen, to be a citizen as a man you had to serve in the army. The pugio was a knife ever soldier, and officer would have carried, owned, and been familiar with. It's the most likely knife the Roman senator would have and carry at the time. Most people at the time would have carried a knife for work or defense. Why wouldn't it be a pugio?

Nice info, but your pronunciation of "Pugio" really annoys me. The "g" in Latin is always hard. It should never sound like a "j."
