A gauntlet was a heavy-duty glove that extended past the wrist and was used in different types of armor. Gauntlets were frequently used as weapons—to increase the wielder's unarmed combat ability—or to conceal weapons. In a few cases, gauntlets held specific heavy weapons or had other utilities (medical, demolitions).
