Gauntlet

The game shows the Gauntlet double your Bat.Pwr, but this is not accurate. The boost varies, but you can generally expect to deal about 50% more damage. Your Weapon's Bat.Pwr factors heavily, so you can expect lesser effects early in the game.

A Weapon needs the 2-hand property to benefit from a Gauntlet. Umaro is a good candidate for Gauntlet use since he can't equip a shield anyway. You'll even find a Gauntlet shortly before recruiting him.
