'''Iron Clefts''' are a powerful type of [[Cleft]] found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The only known Iron Clefts are the two members of the [[Armored Harriers]] team in the [[Glitz Pit]]. They are larger than normal Clefts with a blue coloration, and as their name implies, they are made of impenetrable metal. Even if [[Mario]] manages to have the [[Piercing Blow]] [[badge]] equipped, he still won't deal damage, and a correctly-timed Superguard will not hurt them either. [[Yoshi Kid]]'s [[Gulp]] provides the only known way to defeat the Armored Harriers, as it involves hitting one of the Iron Clefts with the other. It is unknown how the higher-ranked teams in the Glitz Pit managed to defeat the Armored Harriers and obtain higher rankings, or at least, how the next-highest team, the [[Tiny Spinies]], managed to defend their rank.
