• ROG exclusive swappable Omron switch sockets (like the Gladius)
• Ergonomic right-handed design for full grip (or larger hands)
• Laser sensor and high-quality ALPS scroll wheel
• Uses ROG Armory software (like Gladius and Sica)

Like the Gladius and Sica, the Spatha is a type of Roman sword. Specifically, a long sword up to 1 meter long and was a used as a standard heavy infantry weapon by the army and in gladiatorial combat. Thus, as your gaming weapon, the naming fits perfectly!
