I wouldn't disagree with "more appropriate", but a slipped chisel will
still go straight through a knitted Kevlar glove. Kevlar is tough, but
knitted Kevlar isn't mithril.


IMHO, I rarely wear knitted Kevlar gloves. The surface is too knitted
and too prone to snag. If I need to handle sharp-edged sheepmetal, then
I'll use leather gloves, or leather gloves with a _woven_ Kevlar
underlayer (like motorbike gloves).
