Or simpler still protective micro chain mail gloves that simply cannot

Given that even a hand-held circular saw will cut a 10d nail pretty easily,
that would have to be a hell of a glove!


Kevlar


Kevlar reduces knife slices but is chewed up by a TS blade instantly.
Well, less instantly than a leather glove, but very close.

A quick hand into a lower powered saw might result in the breakage of
your hand but I think the kevlar glove might stop the blade shortly
before it started chewing. Dina would choke, fer sher. A 5hp Griz,
prolly not. I wouldn't want to try it with either a circ saw or a
table saw. I ain't no weenie.


I wold think a saw blade might be similar to a speeding bullet.
