Superior GloveContender Cut & Heat Resistant Gloves - Black, Ambidextrous, Reusable, Adult, 1 Count

I bought these for using a mandoline vegetable slicer. Unfortunately that was AFTER I had cut my thumb badly using it when I was tired!Since then I use one of these Kevlar gloves and have not had a single scratch - even when bumping the razor sharp cutting blade!The weave is very thick, but the fibers are like silk. I can't imagine they would provide any protection against something pointy like needles (because of the coarse weave), but against razor blades they are fantastic!

They do help prevent cutting your hands but was not personally thrilled with the feel/dexterity of the gloves. They are VERY smooth and feels like you have a layer of butter on them. Can't firmly grasp fishing line (mono or braid), or other particularly smooth items for that matter. Perhaps they are good for certain applications but not having a firm grip on things involving sharp objects leads to problems in general.

Got these for 2 reasons.One pair for grilling. Works great.Second pair. I was tired of burning my hand when I used my curling wand (only when using curling wand). Its difficult to grab hair with this. But you defiantly DO NOT get burned. Dont use wand enough to practice but you dont get burned.

I unfortunately cut myself frequently when working in my shop so I figured I'd try these gloves and so far so good I haven't been cut since purchasing these gloves. However you can get a puncture wound but all in all a great product well worth the money. I'd recommend these gloves to anyone that tends to cut themselves frequently and to anyone that works with sharp knives and the like.

Loose weave, frays and pulls strands easily, and not very resistant to regular use wear and damage. On the other hand, these gloves are exceedingly comfortable, and I have not tested them for cut resistance.

Work great for TIG bench work. Flexible enough to pick up filler rod and thick enough to provide heat protection

Gloves leave melted black “Kevlar” on surfaces that my other Kevlar sleeves and gloves do not. Not usable for high temp that Kevlar is rated for.

I only used the gloves for one barbique and they failed miserably. The ribs were being seared at 400 degrees farenheit and they were only heat resistant for literally only a second or two. Very disappointed

As the other reviewer already pointed out, the seams are not well made, especially between the fingers they are falling apart in my particular glove. I am guessing they will make an OK work glove so i can find a use for it. Amazon has the greatest customer service, so I won't be returning an $11 pair of gloves - if they were $111 and lined with gold and silver thread, sure I would return them, but not in this case. I might just pull off the little hanging thread and put it under a flame test to see if it really is Kevlar fabric....Nylon and Polyester should start to burn before the Kevlar.... I'll do that when I feel bored.

I struggle with oven mitts as I can't find ones that fit. These gloves work up to 375F for taking muffin pans out of the oven, which is what I wanted them for. They also work well with my handheld steamer, preventing scalds as I stretch and steam fabric. I wear size 71/2 gloves, and the size small fits perfectly. The gloves have gone through the washer and dryer and have held up well. Great price point too!

These gloves are not invincible. They are how ever extremely good at their job. Excellent cut protection, still practice safe cutting while using them.

like to keep hands safe on Motor Bike rides

They seem to fit okay and haven't had a chance to try them out yet
