A battered, rusted and very old gauntlet.
Hidden lore — revealed in game at high Radiance or Inferno
When the fate of humanity was placed on Harkyn's shoulders at Keystone Monastery, the convict rose to the occasion, wiping out the Rhogar invaders and preventing the vengeful Adyr's return, only to be rewarded with years of being reviled and hunted by those he had saved.

How it compares
No standout stat — 32nd of 87 gauntlets for physical defence, and similarly mid-table elsewhere. Worth wearing for its set or its look rather than its numbers.

Alternatives at a similar weight
Other gauntlets within a quarter of this one's 6.4 weight, so swapping does not force a rebuild of the rest of the loadout. Ordered by physical defence.
