I know ShadowPanther charts and AEP points.. but I have seen many arguments about these two items during my wowsearch. Please put the nail in the coffin for me and anyone who disputes these items superiority to each other!
For raiding in a sword spec.....which one is better:

Cobrascale Gloves
http://www.thottbot.com/i29503

208 Armor
+33 stam
+20 hit
+25 crit rating
+50 AP

or

Fel Leather Gloves
http://www.thottbot.com/i25685

169 Armor
[]Yellow Socket
[]Red Socket
socket bonus +6 AP
+17 hit
+24 crit rating
+36 AP

My thoughts: the Fel Leather Gloves can be gem'd to have slightly more AP and +crit, but you forego the +33 stamina on the Cobrascale. I know you won't need much HP for raiding due to group buffs but its always nice to relieve stress on healers and allows more AOE survivability. It might come down to personal preference but all thoughts are greatly appreciated!

ps. The mats for the Cobrascale Gloves are exponentially more time consuming to farm, but its ok /sigh...I have a long playlist.

Edit: Added stats under items for lazy people like me :)

For raiding with combat swords I would take the Fel Leather Gloves anyday over the Cobrascale. With appropriate gems you can have +5 hit, -1 crit, and +8 AP. No brainer.
