Duel Bladed Gauntlet (3.5e Equipment)

Bladed Gauntlets are usually purchased as a pair, and are wielded on the user's hands and forearms. Bladed Gauntlets are similar to normal Gauntlets, with the additional ability to insert (and lock into place) a specially made blade into the forearm part of the equipment that extends past the user's closed fist by about five inches.

The SRD only gives a means to determine costs and weights of weapons for Large and Small versions based on the Medium weapons. Any other supplied values are the author's best determination.

The blades can retract leaving the user's hand free to perform other actions.

A Bladed Gauntlet is treated as a unarmed weapon.
