I have not but I think they would hold up well. They are heavy-duty gloves.

Yes I have used this glove with my mandolin. It works great & I'm sorry I didn't have it when I first used my mandolin and almost cut off the top of my thumb. My thumb healed and I will never use my mandolin without the glove again.

Works with a mandolin. It gave my wife enough confidence to actually use the mandolin. Saved a lot in bandages over the years.

They are better than Ove Gloves. They resist higher temps and the grips are better.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I wonder if they've changed the way the make the gloves. That would be disappointing.

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.

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!

I have Gerbing's gloves and it works fine. As long as the connector plugs intothe inlet, they should work fine. Battery life is good

What size did you buy? I have not had that problem, BUT I bought the Large Gloves and they fit me right, straight out of the box, so, I am not sure why you're experiencing this issue. So you have no issue with the other "fingers", JUST the thump and the pointing finger, right?Personally, I would keep them based on quality, but that's an opinion based on 3+ years of continuous use.

I've had no problem using it with my mandoline. I didn't use it for years before I got the glove because of the risk of cutting myself. I've got Parkinson's Disease and my hands are not very controllable.

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?

Aside from the photos, is there a specific question we might be able to answer for you regarding these gloves? Sincerely, Philip, Dream Products

I've tried them on before. I got the large n they're a little snug but fit perfect. My wrist and hands are about the same, thats measuring with what I got. But gloves themselves are great

I used them just for riding my motorcycle. I used them and nice pair of leather gloves. I repurchased just to have them again. I live in Oklahoma and was a 12month rider. As my circulation has changed in cold my fingers are ice my hands. They are an integral part of my cold weather gear. I hope I helped. I seen the other responses. I wonder what went wrong. I was extremely impressed with them.

I would recommend looking for a Gore-Tex glove for the situation you are asking about. They will be truly water proof and more durable.

As you can see from the pictures the glove material is medium thickness, with some compression. They offer some warmth and I believe would protect skin from accidentally bumping your hand lightly which might otherwise abrade your skin. No protection from heavy contact, the kind which would cause bruise. Definitely worth trying.

I do not think the Glaesel Violin Ultra Practice Mute will work on a Mandolin. Violin have only four strings, a Mandolin has eight, plus Mandolin Bridges are wider and have a curve that is not the same as a violin. Experiment with wooden clothes pins on the bridge or soft sponges under the strings next to the bridge. Good luck.

No. But because of the peculiarities of my kitchen layout, I have to carry 400 degree pans for a distance of about four feet and these gloves work perfectly. If these gloves get stained, hand wash them. I put mine through the washing machine and they shrank slightly -- but not enough to prevent me from using them!!

The V blade tends to bind up, which forces you to apply more pressure that results in injury. Japanese mandolin is the way to go.
