Gauntlet of Menestus
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Gauntlet of Menestus, also known as the Fist of Iron, is a relic of the Iron Hands Space Marine Chapter. It resembles a cybernetic iron gauntlet and was constructed over two thousand years by legendary Mars-trained Iron Father Menestus during the years of the Dark Crusade. Notable uses include it being used to fell the arch-heretic priest of Statholos though its wearer Brother Telamon would be killed at the Battle of Occas Hive. Since that time, the bionic hand had been stored in the armoury of the Iron Hands' Fortress Monastery Weyland where texts would state that it functioned for centuries intact. Eventually, Iron Father Anatolus Gdolkin was selected for being the wearer to be bonded to the relic.[1]
