Sir Edward:

These are those WMA/HEMA gloves that everyone's been talking about. We're trying to encourage everyone to look into these, and VAF is going to be seriously encouraging them for the students as well.

I'll be ordering a pair.

Sir William:
Cool, thanks for sharing.  I was going to put in a snarky comment about doing it in harness if you want that much protection but hey, I'M not doing it in harness either so who am I to talk?

It doesn't look like I'm not going to get another Saturday class for a while so I'll hold off on these.

Excellent! I'll just wait to check out yours then! ;)

Sir William:
It looks like you can get an entire 'harness' as it were; pants, shirt, arms and leg armor.  Even a fencing helmet.

Thorsteinn:
I've got an email exchange going about their legality on the SCA field. I just sent in the SCA hand protection requirements which unfortunately list Hockey Gloves as OK w/o stating that you are more than likely to get broken using them.
