Cut Resistant Gloves with Grip Dots - Breathable & Lightweight Cutting Gloves for Chefs - Ambidextrous - Great for Kitchen Cutting or Woodworking

I almost always hold off from doing reviews within a week or two of receiving any items so that I can have a good chance to really use them and I even go back after a few months and will add an update if an item is particularly good or if it failed. This is one of those rare instances where I was eagerly awaiting the delivery so I could really give them a go and no not with a knife to start out but instead a very expensive mandolin slicer that I buried and hid at the back of the furthest cupboard over twenty years ago after not once but twice taking a few fingertips off even being as careful as I could and using the device that you hold the food with so you don’t cut your fingers. I of course had to try a tomato then potato and I did not use the guard, but I was extremely careful even wearing these gloves. The gloves afford you a sense security and comfort and take away that fear that has built up after being bit by a mandolin slicer. The silicon dots that are on the palm side of the gloves if you have them on the right hands that provide a nonslip grip to everything I tried and again provided a sense of security allowing me to work without fear. I did use the gloves with my best knives and they made holding the knife so much easier again I can’t say it enough they provide a level of assurance that you aren’t going to slip and cut yourself. The gloves are rated with a level 5 cut resistance and they really are as good as they sound and as depicted in their video. They are a food-grade and they are darn comfortable this is one of those rare purchases where you know you got your moneys worth and a whole lot more. If you use the gloves as the manufacturer recommends you cannot go wrong. The silicone microdots are to provide a nonslip grip and are not to be used for heat these are no oven mitts and they are not to protect against stabs or even the rotary meat slicer they are to add protection from accidental slips and cuts like those from a slash not a stab. I liked these so much I have already gifted a pair to a family member whom I think will appreciate them as much as I do.

I've never had gloves sized so precisely. I ordered a S, they fit but were snug so I returned for the M size, now the fit is perfect. Excellent construction and quality, even the fingers fit great and that rarely happens. I'm glad I upgraded to the grip dots, they make for a very secure grip for woodcarving. It would be nice to have the dots of both sides but it's not a deal breaker.

I measured my hands carefully before purchasing these, and bought the medium size, per the size guide. They were just too large for me, unfortunately so I had to return them. For reference, I have long fingers and wear a women’s 5.5 wedding band (fairly thin, long fingers— I can stretch a full octave on a piano lol) and my measurements were on the small end/near the middle of the range stated for the medium size. Also, I typically wear a medium in dishwashing gloves or latex gloves. These gloves fit the length of my hand to the wrist just fine, but they had so much extra fabric in the palm that I could have put a medium sized lemon inside along with my hand! And while the I made sure my fingers were all the way inside the gloves (making sure there was no extra fabric in the “web” area between each finger), the ends of each finger were still too long, with loose fabric at the ends of each finger. I will probably try the small size at some point, and hopefully they will fit better. Other than the fit of mine, I think these seem to be made very well, though I did not try using them in the kitchen, since I felt the improper fit might create a safety issue. With the right fit, I think these would come in handy while using a mandolin slicer (I cut off the tip of my thumb using one of those many years ago, and I’m not making that mistake again!), or for cutting slippery or awkward to grasp vegetables like watermelon, butternut squash, etc. Of course, with a properly sharpened knife and proper knife technique, a glove “shouldn’t” be necessary... but what human being using a knife has always been 100% perfect? No one is perfect, or is able to completely focus at all times, so that’s what these are for! After my purchase I received an email from the company with some safety tips, and I actually appreciated that, unlike some of the seller/manufacturer emails that just seem like marketing or solicitations. Per the email, these are for kitchen use (for protection while using a mandolin slicer, or using knives on a cutting board), and are not capable of preventing puncture wounds. They should not be used when using a meat slicing machine, and should not be used when working with power cutting tools, etc. And the email also stated that you shouldn’t try to test the limits of the glove with your hand inside, which seems like VERY good advice! The thought of that makes me nauseous. Don’t do that! I wish these had worked for me, and I hope to try a smaller size sometime. I’ll definitely purchase this brand again, though! Fingers crossed the small ones fit!

I love these gloves! They are thin enough to allow you to work with a knife and also provide some protection against cuts. I use these to cut chicken quarters into smaller portions and wanted extra cut protection. I also like putting a nitrile glove on top of them so that they stay clean. They have lasted very well and go through the washing machine just fine - they come out like new.

These gloves feel comfortable and fit well, neither too roomy nor too snug. I can get them on and off easily. I purchased these after a mishap while cutting a bagel. They give me a sense of safety when using sharp knives or a mandolin. I ordered them in black since I figured the color would be less likely to show food stains. However, the gloves washed easily. I am glad I made this purchase.

Review update: The seller worked with me to find a better fitting pair and I appreciate all the efforts to find the right sizing. Definitely top notch customer service here. While the new pair fits better they may not work well for our intended purpose of filleting fish. We will try it though. Original review: I purchased these based on the positive reviews. My husband opened his gift, tried them on, and the fingers were at least 1 inch too long. I don't know who has that long of fingers but these are definitely being returned.

Come già detto in altre recensioni, i guanti sono di semplice stoffa. Per come sono fatti bastava prendere qualunque paio di guanti per il freddo, non c'è grande differenza. Molto delusa... immagini fuorvianti...

So far has met its purpose

Ok

These arrived today. I took a risk and trusted the size guide on the site ... they fit - but it is a tight fit. The hand section is a nice firm fit but the fingers are made for skinnier ones than mine. I am expecting them to have a bit of stretch in them so with some wear they should be just right. My son didn't think they looked cut proof and tried them out for himself. He is happy to confirm they work a treat for a slicing action but not so much for a stab - he was smart enough to take his hand out before trying that one :-)

Me quedo un poco apretado. Es tallada media. Si pido grande. Me hubiese quedado más grande de los Dedos. Pero bien
