Acacia gladiiformis, commonly known as sword wattle or sword-leaf wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is an open, erect or spreading shrub with glabrous, reddish brown branchlets, narrowly lance-shaped phyllodes with the narrower end towards the base, spherical heads of golden yellow flowers and linear, thinly leathery pods rounded over the seeds.
Sword wattle is found on the tablelands and western slopes of the Great Dividing Range from Warialda to Cowra in New South Wales and in Queensland, where it grows in Eucalyptus forest and woodland in rocky soils over and around granite or sandstone.
