Mobility is excellent. The deerskin is thick and very comfortable and the protection should be awesome. I added a couple of layers of felt between the finger plates and the glove for a little extra padding. :)
Oh and I had a blast figuring it out and rebuilding it. Now to finish the right hand! :)

adapt and overcome! Awesome job Sir Brian. Those look very functional and protective now. In the Adrian Empire, a lot of guys LOVE fingered gauntlets. At Imperial Crown War I saw an awesome set that were nigh tank proof they felt... get this, he used "buttstock padding" inbetween the glove and the plates! :o never thought of that, and totally works. Apparently it can be bought in sheets
Sir Martyn:
Concur! Nice work, Sir Brian! I look forward to comparing gauntlets :)
Sir Wolf:
