I am LOATHE to sell these as Jeff is my favorite armorer of all time, but these have always been just a tad short on my arms, and I need to sell them so I can get a new pair!

Mild steel-16gauge arm, 14 g elbow. Elbows have simple rondel on them. They are attached to the vambraces by leather articulations.
The vambraces only cover the outside of the arm, but are shaped nicely.

I can take pictures and exact measurements tonight or tomorrow. I thought he had a picture on his website, but he must have taken it down.
I am going to say they are 13inches from the wrist to the center of the elbow.
Dark brown leather straps with hand forged simple buckles.

$200 Shipped to the lower 48.


*Updated.
They are 9 1/2 inches from the Wrist to the Center of the elbow.
Pictures below. They could use a good polish, I have them pretty well oiled up for storage.

Wish he had kept those things oiled... It's easy enough to scrub off, it's just painful to see Jeff's stuff all rusty :)
