Polished Steel Bazuband
$90.00
If demi-gaunts are not enough and gauntlets are too much, equip yourself with something in between! The Polished Steel Bazuband makes an effective and elegant compromise between freedom of movement and protection. Originating in Asia Minor during the 12th to 14th centuries, the bazuband makes the perfect arm armour for Persian and Indian warriors. A pair of Bazuband protects the back of your hand, thumb, and underarm. Strong steel plates provide plenty of defense, while chainmail connects the plates to ensure unbridled movement and additional protection. Made from mild steel and top-grain leather fittings, the Polished Steel Bazuband has adjustable ductile steel flanks that allow for a closer fit.
Please be aware that this metal armour does not include gloves. It is pictured above with our Suede Swordsman Gloves (MCI-2231), which can be purchased separately on our site.
To properly maintain your steel armour, always keep the metal pieces away from water and lightly oiled to prevent rusting. Occasionally clean the armour with metal polish and re-oil them. Leather care products must be used to maintain the leather fittings as well.

Gunner B. –
First off, you are going to want gloves and maybe a bracer. This is a fantastic item at a phenomenal price! On to the basics, these are long. Like they could all most be greaves, sort of long. The thumb piece has rivets that’ll dig into your bare hand. And I highly recommend something to fill in the space between your arm and guantlet.
Overalll, great buy, 10/10, get it yourself!
(The elbow parts are pointy, allmost to the ‘point’ of lethal.)

I did have to do some grinding on the edges of the hand plates for safety and stretch out the leather strap that goes around the thumb so I could wear the gloves I wanted, but otherwise I was very happy with this armor! Very durable for long periods of roleplaying, great coverage for both protection and aesthetic, and comfortable for wear.
