Malta Dynamics Safety Protective Work Gloves, Cut Level 5, OSHA/ANSI Compliant

The gloves are used for handling metals.

These are probably the best gloves I have ever used for outdoor yard work. The fabric is a very tight knit and prevents anything sharp from getting through to your skin, like thorns or briars. The edging along the cuffs is very thick. The fabric is stretchy up to a point and I noticed it doesn't get too uncomfortably hot when working outdoors in the sun. They are very easy to slip on and off, unlike other gloves I've had.The palm-side is covered with some kind of black material that makes it extremely easy to pick up items.I feel very safe wearing these gloves, knowing that my fingers will be protected. I broke a glass item by accident in the garage and used these gloves to pick up the glass shards... no problem.They are very easy to clean by rinsing off in the sink, and they dry pretty fast.Am very pleased with these work gloves, for me they are they best. The only thing I would mention is they probably run a little on the small size. I'm a female with medium size hands and bought a 'large' size which fits pretty well for me. The fingers are a little long, but everything else is ok.I would recommend these gloves to anyone doing any kind of work where you need a good grip and want to protect your fingers.

We wear these gloves regularly on our busy construction sites. They have an excellent grip and in the 3 months since we've been using them, I don't think we have damaged a single pair, although we probably lost a few along the way. They're very strong, made a very good quality material and they probably fit on the tighter side. They grip really well and I kicked them on for hours at a time and it really doesn't bother me at all. Very impressed overall and I will continue to use these

Full disclosure, I received this item as part of Amazon's Vine Program in exchange for an honest review, good or bad. I got a pack of these because I often need to pick up broken glass. I normally do not wear gloves when doing this because I would have a hard time with the dexterity needed to pick up small pieces while wearing other gloves. I am happy to say these fit well enough that I am able to pick up most small, flat objects. Furthermore, I can easily pick up a razor blade and a quarter from carpet. With some effort, I can pick up a quarter off a flat, hard surface, but I can't pick up a razor blade without sliding it to the edge. That is far better than most of the gloves I have tried, costing much more than these.I have not tried to test the cut resistance of these. They are Level A5 and the levels go up to A9, with A9 being the highest rating. A5 cut resistance can handle medium to heavy cut-hazard protection as defined by ANSI (American National Standards Institute).Pro Tool Reviews recommends this style of knit gloves with a grippe, rubber like material of the fingers and palm side. They prefer these over any other style of gloves for professional contractors, mechanics, and anyone who works with their hands. However, these glove add cut resistance so they are even better, making these perhaps the most ideal gloves you can get for most applications or professions.Finally, I have to pick up large boxes a lot. These make that task much easier because the grip of the rubber palms keeps the boxes from sliding out of my hands. Very useful for that purpose, plus you never have to worry about paper cuts from the cardboard on your hands when using the gloves.

We use these gloves for gardening and pruning. They are thin and you do not lose a lot of feeling or dexterity when using them. They are resistant to scratches and cuts but not necessarily punctures, so keep this in mind if working around thorns.All in all they are great lightweight, light duty gloves. 5 stars

Sturdy and comfortable gloves, perfect for Earth Day cleanup. Durable protection with a snug fit, making tasks effortless. A must-have for any outdoor project!

I love these work gloves. I recently had to move lots of furniture, boxes and heavy equipment and wore these gloves every day for several weeks. I also let my workers use them and everyone liked them.They stretch in the hand and fingers so once you put them on they fit snug to your hand and fingers which provides an excellent grip and feel while wearing them. The material used on the palms and fingers is a rubbery non-slip surface that grips really well. I couldn't be happier with these gloves.

I ordered the XL so my husband can use them. These are nice gloves. They fit even my hand well. The cuff is a little tight but with use that should not be an issue. These are expensive gloves ($43 at the time of writing this review), probably geared more for a work environment. If you need that type of glove these are very good. Nice and thick with plenty of polyurethane coating over the palm and fingers. Time will tell how well they hold up to use but first impressions are these are very good work gloves.
