Finger gauntlet kits?
Anyone selling just the finger components? Looking for the Churburg style not the overlapping plates one. Can be in 18 gauge. Mild steel also fine.

Re: Finger gauntlet kits?
I got some from Cet at Rough From the Hammer some years ago, don't know if he still makes them regularly. I also have a completely assembled set of fingers in my to-be-sold pile, although the proportions are somewhat on the long side. Message me if interested and I can get you pics and measurements.

Windrose makes the fingers and knuckles out of hardened and tempered spring stainless.

"mrks occasionally has titanium kits"
hi there... sadly I am no longer offering titanium fingers. they are just too damn hard to make and the 301 full hard(sometimes called spring but it is technically not) 301 fingers look better and draw deeper with a close enough toughness.
I offer a do it yourself finish it yourself kit of fully shaped fingertips that are of exceptional quality for do it yourselfers.
they can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=170945&hilit=301+stainless+fingers
thanks for the shout out

Klaus, sent you a pm.
I'm looking for historically shaped ones...these won't be for SCA, they will be for WMA/HEMMA.
Something like these fingers from Royal Oak Armoury:

Sadly, both of those forges only sell mitten kits. But thanks!losthelm wrote:Whonew had some available.
