I use them at work sometimes-

They're itchy when it gets hot, but otherwise work well.

Ever get them in a blade?



Of course not. If he used equipment like that at work, he would not be
wearing the gloves.

You're absolutely right- though I did have an employer try to tell me
they were required when running a mill once. Eveidently, a few people
had been cut by burrs there in the past, and raised a stink about it.
I'll admit, I just ignored that particular rule, and started looking
for work elsewhere.

They're great for handling rough stock of any sort, though!
