The Assassins Guild Tactical Gauntlet - Stainless Steel Blade, Faux Leather And Nylon Canvas Arm Sheath - Length 12”

The metal holds up. The vambrace is a gorgeous color. The housing is very solid. The mechanism for deployment does not get stuck. This is a true work of art.

Very cool product! Feels very authentic.. I fits super snug on me so wish ot had a size adjuster... Great build quality! Feels very meaty and deadly with the sharp blade! Only other thing missing is spring ejector for authenticity but of course that is for safety to not cut off your ring finger like the game! The blade is like sliding up a box cutter blade, but blade is very nicely oiled, sturdy and sharp! Would recommend!

Being a long time fan of Assassin's Creed, I was very excited to find a real hidden blade instead of some prop or toy you can find on the shelves of Walmart or Amazon. When I put this bracer on, and pull out the blade, I can imagine the feeling of having a blade outside the normal view of others, ready to strike seemingly unarmed. However, this product does not come without its faults. To start with the obvious, the Blade does not have a spring lock mechanism to automatically pull out the blade like the games. I understand why due to safety reasons but I think it takes away the novelty of feeling like an assassin. Next, much like the other version of the hidden blade (which sold out) this one almost requires you to be either bulky on the forearm or wear some clothes under it to keep it stable and/or prevent it from jiggling on your arm too much (as seen in my photo). It can be worn on skinnier arms (like myself) without layers but it can become very annoying. Overall, if you look past its minor inconveniences, this hidden blade is a great addition to some collections and maybe good for self-defense.
