Yup. Thats also in.

I dont plan to cut through armor. But Every armor has its weak spots. Joints, spaces between plates of armor etc.

About leather armor, they will be harder to cut through? Yes, but not impossible, and if one aims well enough, they can still inflict disabling wounds (plus, they still have their own weak spots).

They are basically gloves that aid in martial arts. I wont just run around cutting people to pieces, but instead using material arts. Parrying a sword with them, disarming them and breaking their arm with an open hand strike to the joints, perhaps a quick stab with the claws under his arm severing an important artery or hitting a nerve...
