I am looking to make a pair of demis that have full thumb protection so I feel safe behind a centergrip. I remember some finger gauntlet kits floating around and was hoping I could find someone who could do a metacarpal and full thumb, and maybe splinted wrist pieces. Or possibly just build a set if the price is right lol. Any thoughts?

I got a pair of thumbs from Andy Ward and mounted them on my demis. They worked well for me.

Hmm, I may have to just start contacting armorers to see if they would be willing to make me the parts...Ottarr wrote:I got a pair of thumbs from Andy Ward and mounted them on my demis. They worked well for me.

Re: LF Gauntlet Parts
I have a couple pairs of "ground out" thumbs in stock but can't send any picks 'till next week. I'm out of town working a museum event [don't ya LOVE grade 4's?]

Re: LF Gauntlet Parts
I can do ground out thumbs in 301 hh or titanium.
but would need specific measurements because they dont change much
after they are shaped.

mostly retired but still producing as a hobby.
am tired of making Titanium and 301 SS finger gauntlets
but still offer DIY shaped 301SS fingertip kits for $60 shipped.
usually can ship next day.
