If you decide to learn how to use one, look up Hugh Knight's teaching books (Lulu.com).
Looks like a Zweihander (two hander). Is it a big mamma about 5 - 6 feet long?
EDIT: sorry looks like it has been asked and answered.
Now if you want a good zombie killin real world tool that you can get at any home depot?

Beware that this is also the time period that the Swiss were experimenting with single-edged long blades with similar hilts, although I think mostly with slightly more curve, in what would be called a "swiss saber" in the modern era. Nevertheless I'd probably try to get a better picture before proceeding.
Surely there exists pictures of such a famous sword that weren't taken with a potato.
EDIT: On a better screen, no way it's single edged. FYI, I guess.

The only other photo I have found so far is this one of a descendant posing in front of a memorial:

So I figured a good first step would be to read this book and try to educate myself a little. Every page and picture is like having a voice in your ear whispering "you know you want one. Buy one you fat bastard!" This is as bad a gun porn; maybe worse. Tom should change the name of this place to Enabler-forum.com

Please don't ask me to figure out exactly how much I've spent in the last month solely because I read this forum. All I'll say is...it's a good thing I'm already divorced.
If someone were interested in buying a decent gladius (the sword, not the flashlight) where would you nice people suggest looking?
Thank you.
