Kevlar Carving Gloves

Regular price $39.00

Description

By employing a Kevlar construction in an open weave pattern, these gloves manage to be cut resistant while retaining the properties of breathability and flexibility.

Protection is provided from slicing-action blades at low pressure. In situations where an errant cut with a sharp tool might cause personal injury, these gloves are an excellent way of managing the risk of harm.

Their light weight allows these gloves to be worn comfortably for extended periods of time, and also preserves the feel and feedback that carvers depend upon when using sharp tools. 

Please note that these gloves are not a substitute for a carver's care and proper technique, which are the most essential aspects of safe carving. A sharp point directed straight at the fabric will probably not be able to be stopped by this design and, while they are cut resistant, sustained or elevated pressure on concentrated areas of these gloves may result in penetration of the Kevlar layer.

We advise these gloves be used as complement to best sharpening practice, and believe that they are an especially helpful aid for beginners looking to gain confidence while learning proper and safe techniques.

Although designed to be a snug fit, these are on the smaller side, so please size up. They will not suit a larger man's hand.
Small size across the palm max size 80mm. index finger length 75mm - PINK
Medium size across the palm max size 90mm index finger length 80mm - BLUE

Carving glove

Works well, though as with all gloves you lose some sensation and control.

Good but too small

Even the Large are too small - good, but after a time, they restrict blood flow into the hands - please secure bigger sizes

Kevlar Carving Gloves

Purchased a "large size" glove, they are a very tight fit.

For Aussie hands the gloves should be larger.

Glass Resistant Gloves

These gloves are very comfortable and practical.
I feel more confident while han d ling glass now. While I a core and snap glass, for leadlighting. I no longer worry that tiny shards might perforate my hands.
The company, Japanese Tools, provided me with excellent service and advice.
More companies should follow their ethical approach. Delivery was rapid. too.
