This strange gauntlet is made of a pale gray metal that seems almost transparent at times.

Wearing the gauntlet activates all its various effects as you desire. Any weapon gripped by your gauntleted hand also gains the ghost touch property. The gauntlet’s most impressive feature, though, is its ability to make parts of itself (and the corresponding portions of your hand inside) incorporeal. You can apply the effect to portions of your hands, leaving bits of your fingertips intact, so that your can reach inside locks and objects to manipulate their mechanisms. Thus, the gauntlet grants you a +5 competence bonus on Disable Device and Open Lock checks.

In addition, a ghost gauntlet can be used to transport an object that you touch with it to a distant location on the Ethereal Plane, as though by the teleport object spell. This ability is usable once per day.

Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and Armor, plane shift, teleport object.

Cost to Create: 34,391 gp, 2,751 XP, 35 days.
