are these gloves cut-proof? I might have to grab some knifes by the edge...

I use when I'm at the firing range. Loading mags and what not, finger tips have held up really well. Can't speak to them being "cut proof".

I can't say for certain, but from my experience using them they are fairly tough. I'm sure it would depend on the sharpness of your knife and amount of pressure.

No they're not bullet proof! They prevent getting slashed with a blade but you can get stabbed with a point.

I am not sure about your Q&A.; We have several OXO kitchen blades. They are stored to protect their edges. These knives are used daily and hold a very durable edge. Last Christmas I purchased a set for my sister. She likes them too. Another question?

Not "sharp" edges, but you do have to press them a little firmly to operate. I like that, so you aren't accidentally turning on/off during use. Maybe it's worth a trip to a sporting goods store for you to test out before you buy?

I don't own these but saw them and your question and wanted to jump in... glass or other hard cutting boards are terrible for your knives. Can you? Yes, of course. Should you, if you want your knives edges to stay sharp? No, never. Spend a few bucks and get the plastic or bamboo boards, they're just as tough and won't ruin your knives, no matter how much you spent on them.

I haven't tried but assume they would. They wouldn't scratch, but they probably wouldn't cut it a smoothly as a regular knife. Most things come out a little jagged.

They cut better than most normal dinner knives. They're not serrated but are quite sharp. Hope that helps!

I have not had any problems cutting with these knives. My old ones were so bad they should of been replaced long ago. It is a pleasure having a good knife

No doubt, My kitchen staff uses the glove while using chef knifes. A shucker shouldn't be a problem

The gloves are cut resistant and inadvertently brushing across while grating alerts me before I do damage...but I would still exhibit reasonable caution.

Depends on how sharp and what level of force. These are heavy duty. I use them as fireplace gloves and I am never concerned about getting splinters or being burned.

Haven't tried but very seriously doubt it. That would make removing the knives difficult.

There is no protection for the blade. The blades on my knives have started to cut through the mesh slots.

I haven't tried cutting leather, you don't say how thick it is, but I have cut heavy webbing with ease so I think they should work OK.

You Could depending on your Knives. I don't think it would be the Safest Idea.

I bought my glove with the intention of using them while i cut fabric with my rotary cutter. Your question came at a time when I was going to make jerky. The job was completed with satisfactory usage of the gloves. I had a close call with the blade purposely to test the claim. i did not have a cut either on the glove or my fingers. I am very satisfied with the gloves. They may seem slightly bulky initially, but you get used to them easily. I won't cut fabric or use my slicer without them on my hands from now on!
