Bladenoob Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Hello Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place, or if I didn't take the proper steps first But I was wondering if someone could get me information for some gauntlets I was trying to get my hands on a pair of gauntlets that look something like the attached photo. If any one could get me information such as: A blacksmith I could contact Ballparking the price And where I could get a lesser quality if the blacksmthing price is to high for me Any more information you could provide would be much apreciated Thanks for listening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnr Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 hope you have real deep pockets. I have seen similar run to about 350.00 per pair. Finnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladenoob Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 That's actually a pretty perfect price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnr Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I will see if Master Cad has a large back up then. What do you plan to use these for? Actual combat as in live steel or SCA? Also knowing your location would help. Finnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladenoob Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 I don't plan to use them for combat, I just plan on walking around and getting looks of jealousy from people. I just need them to be as realistic and wearable as possible for that price. And location's Canada. For specifics, PM me please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 How do you make gauntlets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 May I suggest you take this query over to the armourarchive.org which is a series of forums *dedicated* to the modern making of medieval and renaissance armour. This is not a job for a blacksmith but for an armourer (and yes they use the english spelling of armour and not the american one in the url.) As previously mentioned do list your intended use and approximate location; shoot you may want to check the classifieds section to see if someone has a pair for sale right now!
