Here's a test. Take a sausage, shove a chopstick up the middle to
simulate bone, stick it in a finger of the glove and then jam it into
the bandsaw. See just how much damage the sausage suffers.
(I did this a while ago with a plasma cutter - interesting results)

If these "Kevlar gloves" are the typical knitted sort, then they're
only "cut resistant", they're only claimed to be cut resistant against
stationary smooth knives rather than moving objects or any sort of
toothed or abrasive saw, and the manufacturers are extremely vociferous
in stating this.

In practice, they're loosely knitted and will catch on anything that
isn't glass smooth. Although they might offer a certain level of
resistance to some accidents, they've got absolutely no place anywhere
near moving machinery. Chances are (especially for a bandsaw) that
they'll turn small accidents into big ones.
