Why these are better than the other gauntlets:
– no straps between your palm and the weapon, giving superior grip. This means less effort to hold onto weapons over many fights and harder to be disarmed.
– leather on cuffs extends past the metal. Makes them easier to repair and increases comfort with short vambraces.
Also well made, with deep pockets for ends of fingers and thumb
Cant wait to put them to use look and fit perfectly
