Iron Gauntlets - Phantom Blade Zero Guide - IGN

The distance between getting the Hunter's Chain Sickle and the Iron Gauntlets is pretty drastic, so don't be alarmed when you haven't picked up a new Phantom Edge just yet. The Iron Gauntlets pack a strong punch with a base damage of 261 and base Guard Break of 223. They have incredibly high Shield-Breaking power that rivals the Dread Axe.

They do not have a use outside of combat.
