(if this posts all sorts of times, its because the archive is acting all screwy)
I got to do the happy dance today as the UPS dude dropped off a package from Morgan d'Antioche!
My new half gaunt arrived today, yippie!
Its stainless with a brass rope at the wrist.
I likes it bunches... it fits just right, and looks exactly as I expected.

Wait a minute?
You ordered just one half-gauntlet? Why not a pair?
Am I misunderstanding?

I do? Was I drunk again?

Apparently we suffer the same inclination towards forgetfullness...
I got one half gauntlet for a couple reasons...
- it was cheaper than two.
- its purely for SCA sword and shield combat, and I don't wear a half gauntlet behind my shield.
- it was cheaper than two.
