Is this an ideal glove for woodcarving? Since it says cut resistant I would think it would be but I would like to be sure before purchasing. Thanks!

I use these gloves when chopping food. They are excellent at stopping nicks and cuts from a blades light slicing motion but I do not think that they are designed to offer much protection from stabbing or hacking blades. I would not use these gloves with any electrical blades, routers or saws because they are fabric and could get caught in the mechanisms.

Has been great with knives. My husband keeps them sharp for safety, however I have done woodcarving in a few decades. Would be concerned about amount of force

I really don't think so. After getting these I am not all too impressed with them. They fit tighter than expected and knife points go right through them. They are kinda slippery like wool or mitten style gloves. I went with hexarmor gloves instead. They really protect from cuts and lacerations on a level that is highly above the competition. look up their site you will love the gloves. They take a little bit to break in but after having them for 6 months they hold up well to the abuse I put them through. Hope this helps

I don't know much about wood carving, but since the glove protects your hand against cuts from the mandolin, I'm assuming it will keep a knife from making nicks in our hand, if the knife slips.

All I know is that Mora knives are designed for wood carving and hold an edge really well. Mine was razor sharp right out of the box. Which knife is for you is likely more about grip comfort than anything else.

Yes. These are a great glove to work around wood stoves. I've touched red hot cols with the glove on without burning myself. I also touch hot metal without a problem. Great glove.

Not too well, I bought cut resistance gloves to use with it. But be careful blade is VERY sharp

I have used it to cut frozen sheep and deer, and got nice cuts, the only thing is if you try to rush it the blade bends and when it bends it cuts the table, so that is the only draw back. I hope that helps you with your decision. since i bought this saw, i have cut atleast 25 sheep and a minimum of 6 deers on it, no issues outside of the blade bending like i mentioned to you already.

I find it best and safest to remove the blade cover and then adjust the blade to widest cutting position for cleaning... I used a damp sponge and always wear 'slash resistant gloves' that I purchased on Amazon.

Sorry, but I have no way of knowing. Personally though, I trust Amazon and the products they represent. Also, my glove works fine and I haven't been burned at all!

My hands are medium to small. The pruners work good for me. If my hands were any smaller more effort would be needed for me to cut. I love the pruners though and would rather work with them then use the old time pruners I have always purchased.

I have never used them for this application. But I hear of people doing that with these type of glove. I have heard stories of success with this. It would be a cheap solution at least. Give it a shot what do you have to lose?

It comes with the heat resistant glove & everything comes in a black fabric zip case with slots that hold the individual irons. Based on the material i'd say it's decently heat resistant but I don't recall seeing anything that specifically stated it was heat resistant.....unless I just missed it. It's a nice case though.

Actually, the glove can be worn on either hand. Both sides of the glove are exactly alike. It's almost like a knitted glove in that it has no seams. I wear it on my right hand because I cut left- handed and my husband wears it on his left hand. I bought it for him so it fits a little big on me but it works just fine!

Yes ,blade is very hard,do not poke in to wood,use ceramic to sharpen,I use it every day:hunting,fishing,small carvings..etc ,also serve me for self defense,this blade is 3'' long so it is legal in most states,it is on small side for regular size palms,if Yours hands are extra large get the knife size up,great as a neck style,no one will see it,practice draw & recovery so U wont cut U self,no joke !!! supper sharp.Andy

Yes, I would think so. They are my wife's pruners, but I have used them a number of times and found them comfortable. I used to wear a medium glove but with the current common sizing I now often wear a large. Hope this helps.

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

these types of gloves seem to be made for mechanics in mind to prevent burns and abrasions while maintaining dexterity, therefore they do work well for many other light physical labor tasks and chores. however I do not use them for masonry work of any sort, they just do not last a long timeI hope this helps....?

My husband says as wonderful as it is for our purpose ... stoking the woodstove ... he believes it's too stiff to use with a heat gun. He said the 'Ove Glove I bought him years ago he keeps in his soldering box and it works great. That's all the advice I can give.
