Glove Station Ultra Durable Series Cut Resistant Gloves - Cutting Gloves for Chefs, BBQ and Cooking - Level 5 Protection, Food Grade Safe Cut - Grey, Medium Size

Gloves are cut resistant and comfortable. I haven't washed them yet but they feel thick enough to protect yet thin enough to not affect handling of cutting implements.There's no easy way to respond directly to the negative reviews freaking out over the Prop 65 warning. I thought I could share a few thoughts on this and why I'm not concerned that you find such a warning on a pair of kitchen gloves.California required this warning on anything that contains ingredients that could conceivably metabolize into benzidine. Note the wording is not "This product contains benzidine", but "This product can expose you to. . ."This is important.Benzidine is an occupational carcinogen and is no longer legal for dye manufacturing. It was responsible for a higher incidence of bladder cancer for workers who were exposed directly to it in large amounts for hours a day, for months on end. The benzidine passes harmlessly through your system until it is collected in the bladder, where it can cause problems if it is constantly present. For this to happen you need constant, long-term exposure. For this chemical to cause cancer in dogs, the only other animal in which bladder cancer is caused, they needed to administer it at a dosage of 100 mg/kg of weight daily for a full year.There is likely less that 100 mg of dye in total in these gloves. Dye simply does not appreciably increase the mass of an item. However, even that 100mg of dye likely contains very little, if any, benzidine. Such a dye would be illegal and certainly if it was being used a company wouldn't call attention to it. Instead, there are ingredients used in dyes that may contain some "impurities" that can metabolize into benzidine. If any of these ingredients are present in the manufacturing process, California requires the warning that the end product "can expose you to" the chemical.So, in short, even if the gloves were dyed with pure benzidine-based dyes you would need to actually eat a pair for every kilogram of your body weight, daily, for a year in order to have a measurably increased risk of cancer. However, the gloves likely do NOT contain a benzidine based dye, but instead a trace impurity (such as Nitrobenzene) that can turn into benzidine under certain conditions, so you would need to eat thousands or tens of thousands of pairs per day in order to be at-risk.In short, don't eat the gloves.

Awesome product for my job as prep cook!

I recently got a dehydrator. So I’ve been putting a lot of things in there. The key to making it work properly is to make sure everything is uniformly cut. So for that I use my mandolin. The problem is when you’re cutting some oranges with the skin on the guard on the mandolin can easily slip. That’s what happened to me and I ended up with a cut on my thumb. I refuse to use my mail and again until I got a safety glove. I got these and I really like them. They seem to work well and last time I use the mandolin I didn’t hurt myself. They do stain very easily and when you rinse them off and clean them they do take a long time to dry. They also come very stinky. But I love purple.

Ok

I’m a glass artist and it never fails when picking up glass you get cuts. I use these for moving glass
