review wanted : K+K Art armour

Post by mike mercier »

I was wanting to know if anyone owns any, or has handled any armour from K+K art in the Czech. http://www.armouronline.com/

I havent heard very good things about their weapons, but what I was really wondering was their plate, specifically their gauntlets. (their helmets have a little to be desired)

This one looks quite nice for the price http://www.armouronline.com/product/589/gauntlet.html

Any opinions would be appreciated.

They built a pair of SS finger gauntlets specifically sized for my wife maybe 8 years ago.At the time they weren't working in stainless mind you.We went through their american agent-Crystal Knight Armoury I think-the man's actual name escapes me.We spoke on the phone,measured everything,and recieved exactly what we ordered 3 weeks later.Could not possibly have gone better.She is currently going on her second pair of gloves but that is no great suprise after 8 years of absolute neglect and punishment.
N.B. That was 8 years ago.We had no contact with them directly,only their agent who was AWESOME.Turn-around time on the "I like these,can you make them in Stainless Steel?" question was under an hour.
Individual mileage may vary.
Good Luck.
