Half gauntlet recommendations
My current half gauntlet for my right hand has been bludgeoned enough and straightened to the point the metal has cracked, not to mention the articulation binds while throwing a leg wrap and stresses my wrist. (Yes, I know. Wrap shots bad, half gauntlets and basket hilts bad, etc.) I wanted a set of AB's gaunts from Known world Treasures but between their relocation and in stock page I do not see what I want. Now I must restart my quest for a good half gauntlet. Who would everyone recommend for a stainless half gauntlet with a good range of motion. I would prefer two lames of articulation between the hand plate and the bell and would like to keep the cost to around $150 for the set, although I can wiggle on that if I find exactly what I am looking for. Any recommendations from the gallery?

Re: Half gauntlet recommendations
I don't know about Steel/Stainless demis, but I'd recommend Bokalos demi gauntlets. Picked up one for my right hand, it articulates nicely, very protective, and finally, I can attempt the wraps and feints that require wrist movement that I couldn't even think of before. (Previous demi was second hand)
Bokalos are aluminum I believe, and the one I got was probably 40$. So ~80 for a set.
