The glove works by pinching the blade. It's not a indestructible metal glove. When the blade comes and slices trough it, it pinches the blade and leaves a gap between the blade and the hand.. The glove material works like a vice against the slicing blade.. Offcourse an axe will chop your finger off.. Real riveted mail is pretty much indestructible. Butted "chainmail" what people do their stupid testings on can be ripped by hand. I've seen a real riveted chainmail block a spear shot to the stomach. If accompanied with gambeson, it's arrow proof. Even a 140 pound warbow can't penetrate that with hardened steel bodkin tips.
You know where these gloves are used a lot? Making windows.. The glass is cut by controlled cracking. So the edge is surgically sharp.. With these gloves, you can pick the glass from the edge and get no cuts to the hand.. Source: I've worked in a window factory.
Pretty much, if you need to grab a sharp edge, these gloves are great. But if you're cutting something and the blade slips, these gloves are just "better than nothing".
You can twist your fingers off using these on band saws and tables saws as it will pull it in and pinch it and twist as the saw comes to a stop or the blade breaks.
Cut level five gloves are rated at 3000 grams (6 pounds) of cutting pressure with a new blade such as a razor knife for cutting drywall etc. They are not cut proof, but they are a hell of a lot better than regular gloves and especially bare hands. Get the right cut level for the work you are doing and remember there are limitations to everything. Be safe and adding an extra safety measure is never a bad idea.
In ancient times, In Russia, leather is boiled in milk until it becomes as hard as metal. Use as part of a laminated armor with hemp cord fabric (whose seeds was imported from China) soaked in boiling sap resins from trees and placed between layers of almost metal hard and tough leather and allowed to properly cure and then used with thickened dense riveted chain mail armor between the solid armor components as the flexible joints with flexible leather-hemp cord fabric in between and using the same thickened dense riveted chain mail armor with the tightly cross stitched flexible leather-hemp cord fabric underneath the gloves so as to handle their weapons with small hexagonal plates made out of laminated armor with hemp cord fabric (whose seeds was imported from China) soaked in boiling sap resins from trees. Expensive and time consuming but the Russian tribes and prince controlled areas in earlier times who are prudent and wise enough, invested a lot in such armor for their men and made sure they are properly treated and properly stored protectively from deterioration when not in use. Combined with good military knowledge and experience and flexibility in tactics and strategies while maintaining an objective, they usually won.
Super interesting. Our goals of being protected have not changed but our methods certainly have. Your post makes me nostalgic for a time of such handicrafts
TBH, I consider buying some cut-resistant gloves mostly for kitchen use. And when using a sharp knife in the kitchen, you're not even supposed to apply a lot of force cutting "normal" ingredients (chopping bones or cracking a coconut would be some obvious exceptions). So the NoCrys should offer enough protection, right?
I would love to use this video for training purposes at my job. Would you allow that? I think it could raise awareness as far as the expectation employees have on their PPE and reiterate that these items have limitations.
like you would apply more pressure to your hand when you already feel the blade on your hand. this for cutting protection, for which they are absolutely worthwile.
Lol at 3:59... WHY WEREN'T YOU WEARING THE GLOVES! Make me nervous as hell as someone who recently damaged my hands and am now considering these. Here's a random question. Can you use a touch screen with them on?
Cx The title says "cut resistant" not "Cut Proof" the manufacture does not claim cut proof! and for the price what do you expect about $7-12 bucks. There are ratings ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Hand Protection Classification Standard A1-A9 You will be able to tell if a glove has been tested under the new standard by the new numbering system
How well do they handle heat? I make knives and am actually recovering from a pretty bad cut i got sharpening a knife. When grinding i need it to be as thin as possible leather is too thick i can't feel what I'm doing but I'm worried gloves like this would melt at low temps
I know this in a pretty old video but i'm curious about one point. Are those really a good idea when using a table saw? I was curious about safety around those and every place i look they tell it's a bad idea because the glove might get stuck on the blade, making a possible accident much worse.
I just cut the hell out of my middle finger knuckle, had to go to the hospital. How do I find a good glove I can use to clean and take care of my collection of knives? This is the first time I have cut myself like this in 50 years...I don't want a second time.
Maximum Joe ive seen that the best glove type for ultimate CUT protection is the chain mail butcher's glove. only downside is that it can be vulnerable to penetration depending on the weave and size of the links
Butcher's gloves are a real investment though… the most effective protection against pointed objects would be steel plate, but plate gloves are quite unwieldy and probably more expensive still, but they do make you look a bit like a knight…
No you idiot he was asking a question. Were those gloves level 5 cut proof? They look like they are be. If you were to do your research before you did this you know what what level 5 cut proof are rate for. They are only rated for light-med slicing cuts. Not chopping with an axe which would be a chainmail or aggressive using the point of a box cutter/exacto blade which would need probably a level 7 or 8 (a thicker work glove). This type of glove you have is meant for stuff like food prep which you're just gonna knick yourself while dicing. www.superiorglove.com/documents/SuperiorGlove.com-Guide-to-ANSI-EN388-Cut-Levels.pdf
Notice how in the last example. You barely cut through the glove when using a ton of pressure and doing a SLICING motion. If you're using that much pressure when cutting meat/veggies then you're doing it wrong. On top of that the gloves don't work properly when filled with a hard surface. They work better when there's something soft under it. Your finger is squishy so when the knife presses against the glove it has to press down until its against the bone before it will put pressure on the actual strength of the glove (because as you say if you just glide a knife over it it stops it 100% so until theres pressure on it it's still not even denting the material). By that point you would normally react and pull the knife away by then. But again if you cut like a maniac like you do then you'll keep going, in which the glove will start to use its cut resistant material. So hopefully by then you'll be able to pull back, but if not then when you push harder it will slowly start to break after you exceed the amount of pressure needed to break the material in which you would have slowed the knife down majorly so the cut will by like a papercut. But again if you have some knife skills the glove should be enough to stop it. Source: Me I am a meat cutter and I have some cut resistant 5's and I have yet to break through them.
I'd like to knowhow good they are with a chef's knife or a mandoline... How abouth hot dogs to fill the fingers instead of beans? Or ballistic gel...? Just as a test Idea ;-) I'm not trying that onmyself 🤣
I wonder how much protection they're actually giving to your lungs? We've been 'forced' to wear these types of glove at work since '06, and I've witnessed thousands of tiny air borne "glass type" fibers (when the sunlight is just right) being emitted from these gloves. We're inhaling these microscopic fibers by the gallon. What exactly are these fibers and what are they doing to our lungs? If you haven't noticed it, then try shaking a glove in the sunlight, and you'll see what I mean!
@@metaspencer Ha, not a chance cobba, these gloves have been industrially washed many times before. Just shake em in the right light, you'll see what I mean!
*_Your video saved me several hundred dollars!_* I have been searching for gloves with a specific purpose in mind & considered those particular gloves, but decided to search for a product review video & found you. You answered all the questions I had in mind with clear demonstrations. See, when I decide to purchase certain equipment I have the habit of buying enough for me & my wife & back-ups for both of us. (2 is 1 & 1 is none) Therefore, had I chosen those gloves (which are obviously good for many other purposes) I would have spent hundreds of dollars. Thank you for such excellent effort.
Your test isn't really relevant, theyre supposed to be on your hands not laying flat on a hard surface and even then you have to apply alot of force. These gloves are supposed to protect your hands when you slip with a knife or a sharp object. Youre not supposed to stab your hand for fun...

I guess I was a bit surprised that I could slice through the glove at all ... but with light pressure, they do work

Not "cut-proof". They are CUT RESISTANT.

good review to remove any misunderstanding that cut proof means knife won't cut them, only chainmain glove is truly cut proof
You said it! Absolutely
Very useful, I now have a better idea of what kind of protection to expect. Thanks!
Good deal! thanks for checking it out
the mafia can still take my fingers lol
chop chop!
The mafia could also take off the glove first, I guess…
😂😂😂😂

Gloves can definitely get stuck in power tools of all kinds
Don't wear gloves around spinny things.
Better to have a few cuts and splinters as opposed to having to clean finger paté out of the drive mechanism.
Great video!!
Thanks!
Great video, very helpful. Thanks!

These offer "level 5 protection" which isn't perfect and 100% safe, but much better than human skin! amzn.to/2l0UQGg

nor chainsaws :)
5:31 that's what he thinks of you.
I dont think any glove will protect against an axe. And if it did survive the cut, your fingers would still be pulped
Yeah, well said.

Well, I don't know if anyone would risk really cutting with the gloves on the hands ... so I was going for the next best thing. Good luck out there!
Also no hate intented, just try putting something soft "skinlike" under the gloves next time and u will be amazed by the difference.
that's a great idea. I'll think of something ...
