Bladed gauntlet

The bladed gauntlet is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
It is an Unarmed weapon composed of three sharpened blades arranged around the users fist. It is a rather strong Unarmed weapon early in the game when compared to other alternatives, like brass knuckles or boxing tape. However, it is rarer than most unarmed weapons, so it can be difficult to repair without Jury Rigging.

Variants

 * Cram Opener, a more powerful and durable unique bladed gauntlet.

Locations

 * Two can be found in the NCR Correctional Facility; one can be found on the first floor of wardens office, below the wardens terminal and another can be found in Eddie's desk.
 * Two can be found in Primm; one can be found in the Nash residence and can be found in the gun cabinet in the top floor of the Bison Steve hotel.
 * Mick & Ralph's - can be bought from Mick
 * Mojave Outpost - one may be bought from Lacey
 * Miguel's Pawn Shop - one may be bought from Miquel
 * Nipton - one can be found east, in a half-buried gun cabinet.
 * Many White Legs bone-breakers in Zion Canyon use this.

Bugs

 * This weapon has the icon of a melee weapon when you assign it to the D-pad, even though it is an unarmed weapon. This also happens with the unique Cram Opener.
 * If you enter The Fort with this weapon equipped, it will appear on The Courier even your weapons have been confiscated. After leaving, weapons can be equipped with the bladed gauntlet still appearing on the user's hand, this renders some weapons' iron sights unusable. Equipping the weapon and unequipping it should fix this.
