Cut Resistant Glove by Microplane

I haven't had any "accidents" that would have put this to a real test. I have large hands and was concerned about being able to wear these. but they do fit (a little snug but got them on OK).

I do a lot of cooking which in turn requires a lot of prep-work. Quite a bit of this prep includes the use of a hand greater and sometimes I get going so fast that I'll run my knuckles minto the greater and cut them. With the propper use of this glove it saves my knuckles from cuts and ruining my food. I also use it while cutting and chopping food and vegetables on my right hand with the oyster glove on my left hand to save my hands from mishaps of a knife slip. Again Safety First...

I like the mobility you get with this product and it works ok as a first line of defense against the Mandoline, but it wears out pretty quickly and it's more susceptible to nicks than I expected. I've had mine for about two months and it already has holes in a couple of the fingertips. It's still usable, and better than nothing, but it's not exactly perfect.

It's a nail saver, finger saver and time saver, It takes far less time to put on the glove than bandage a finger or fix a nail. A lot less pain too!

This was a gift for our 12 year old daughter, who has smaller hands. Thus, the tips of the glove are a bit long for her fingers. Rather than shifting the tips to the tops of her fingers, they were hanging out a bit and one was chopped off while she was cutting her first onion! We were surprised with how easy it was to cut through. I know that the material is not Cut Proof... however, the ease in which it was sliced was not very impressive.
