Okay, so these are rather crudely executed, and the pattern still needs a little tweaking, but, given that these are both the most complex leather items I’ve made yet, and they’re my first attempt at any sort of gauntlet, I’m rather pleased with them.
I’ve seen some similar clawed gauntlets at a local con that I attend, but they didn’t allow for much hand movement, were very clunky and heavy, and had no thumb claw at all, so, I designed a gauntlet that I felt was comfortable, allowed me to retain my fine motor skills and a good grip, and then stuck claws on it.

So Yeah. Claw Gauntlets. Clauntlets, perhaps. My coworker calls the Murder Gloves. Oooh, Taloned Gauntlets, that sounds good...
