NoCry Cut Resistant Gloves with Grip Dots - High Performance Level 5 Protection, Food Grade. Size Extra Large, Free Ebook Included!

Just what I needed, and they appear to be durable, nice and thick. Ordered these as a safety precaution when bookbinding, which requires many cuts with a utility knife or scalpel. I ordered medium size, and the fit is perfect. (I have "piano hands," long slender fingers.) They're snug, but not too, and flexible enough for me to easily pick up small items. Although the fit is ambidextrous, the raised, gripping surface is on only one side, so you'll probably want that on the palm side of the hand. I'm also going to wear these while using my mandolin slicer and grater box. I've done some quilting and would also recommend these for sewers and quilters who use rotary cutters--those things really scare me! Also, it's a plus that they are not made in China--but in Thailand.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I picked the grip-dots model to use for wood carving. I've tried a few different kinds of gloves and these are one of my most loved pairs. My knuckle measurement is about 3.5" exactly. I ordered a small and medium and found that medium fit my hand better.I like that the gloves are easy to use and wash. They're thick enough to protect you from a nasty cut, but I would still be careful as you would with any cut-resistant glove. This pair is rated as A5 which is perfect for my use case. The grip dots are really nice for gripping my work as I whittle as well.

It works for me. I am always apprehensive when cutting something, these gloves seems to work .

I almost always hold off from doing reviews within a week or two of receiving any items so that I can have a good chance to really use them and I even go back after a few months and will add an update if an item is particularly good or if it failed. This is one of those rare instances where I was eagerly awaiting the delivery so I could really give them a go and no not with a knife to start out but instead a very expensive mandolin slicer that I buried and hid at the back of the furthest cupboard over twenty years ago after not once but twice taking a few fingertips off even being as careful as I could and using the device that you hold the food with so you don’t cut your fingers. I of course had to try a tomato then potato and I did not use the guard, but I was extremely careful even wearing these gloves. The gloves afford you a sense security and comfort and take away that fear that has built up after being bit by a mandolin slicer. The silicon dots that are on the palm side of the gloves if you have them on the right hands that provide a nonslip grip to everything I tried and again provided a sense of security allowing me to work without fear. I did use the gloves with my best knives and they made holding the knife so much easier again I can’t say it enough they provide a level of assurance that you aren’t going to slip and cut yourself. The gloves are rated with a level 5 cut resistance and they really are as good as they sound and as depicted in their video. They are a food-grade and they are darn comfortable this is one of those rare purchases where you know you got your moneys worth and a whole lot more. If you use the gloves as the manufacturer recommends you cannot go wrong. The silicone microdots are to provide a nonslip grip and are not to be used for heat these are no oven mitts and they are not to protect against stabs or even the rotary meat slicer they are to add protection from accidental slips and cuts like those from a slash not a stab. I liked these so much I have already gifted a pair to a family member whom I think will appreciate them as much as I do.

The gloves re advertised and the fit is good. I used them last night for grating onions on my box grater and my hands were safe from the blade.

Work as advertised. Have lasted well

These are nice gloves overall. But I didn’t like them cuz I ordered a size small but they weren’t tight around the wrists. I felt like I had to wrap a hair tie around the wrist to make it snug. I need them for fiberglass insulation so I need a snug fit. So I will be returning.

Received these gloves a few minutes ago.I bought these because I am now blind in one eye and my depth perception is gone. As I am the primary food preparer in my home, I felt it prudent to go ahead and protect my hands as best as possible.WHAT COMES IN THE PACKAGE:1 - Care and Use Instruction sheet: This sheet is printed on both sides. The front side has 8 graphics about the gloves, their use, and their care. There is one panel on how to provide feedback. The back of the page Spanish, French, and Italian; no graphics.1 - Warranty card with what I would describe as a spoof on the asteroid that ended the age of dinosaurs on one side and the other has some words that I were unable to read because of the color of font that was used (I am not sure why companies use a light colored font on a white background), a QR code and an email address. I did forget to mention that the company/brand name is on both sides of card.2 - No Cry gloves w/ 3 reinforced fingers (middle, pointer, and thumb): Both gloves are black and slightly stretchy. The have a white cuff that stretches and a loop location just inside each glove for hanging up to dry after they're washed. One could hang them up for storage, if they chose.TRYING ON THE GLOVES:Trying on a glove was a tad more difficult than I thought it would, or should, be. The glove was tighter than I expected. After I measured my hands using the provided measuring guide, I ordered "Small". After trying on one of the gloves, I struggled to get my fingers to go in without using significant force. Afterwards, I did my best to flex my fingers. This action was very uncomfortable. Especially the middle and pointer fingers. My middle finger actually popped, as though I had went and cracked my knuckle. It took a moment to remove my hand from the glove and I grew slightly concerned that I may have to cut the glove off as my middle finger did not want to leave the confines of its sheath.OVERALL IMPRESSION:overall, I'm sure these will be good gloves to use - once I get the proper size. So, it is somewhat unfair to rate these gloves based off of what I've experienced without actually being able to use them.I would recommend to anyone who is interested in this product to think about going at least 1 size larger than what is recommended. After trying one, think about your knuckles as that will be the telling difference on how you might feel about this item. I would not surprised if I need to go two sizes up. But, we'll see.EDIT 4 December 2023 ~1600 hours:Went out for a few errands and when I got home I saw a paper envelope on my front stoop. Opened it up and a pair of size Medium gloves were delivered. I did purchase this pair, as I did the original Small set.I tried on both pair. Here is my opinion.The Medium-sized gl9ves so fit better. They are a l8ttle anug in the fingers, but not too uncomfortably so. It may be that as a human, I am n9t perfectly symmetrical but one of the gl9ves' thumbs is slightly larger than the other. Now, for clarification the gloves do not specify if they are designated L or R. For my purposes, I wear the gloves with the logo tag facing up (i.e., the top of my hand) l. I tried on the gloves wuth the logo tag facing down (i.e., the heel of my hand) and that is how I discovered the difference. The gl9ve I initially designated t I be the R gl9ve, there was a little more space at the tip that I was able to pinch and pull. When I changed the glove to be on my L hand, there was no extra. This tells me that my left pinkie is a little larger than my right.Now, with all this said unless one must absolutely by symmetrical, I do jot foresee this to be an issue unless one actually is able to cut off the tip. Fortunately, when cutting meat when preparing food, I secure the food in my left hand while slicing with my right (which is oddly enough strange as I cut my food using my left hand to eat... I'm an oddball for certain.I did change my 3-star rating tonl a4-star rating. I could not give a 5-star rating as the gl9ves are nice, but they are nit perfect.Side Note:The company did issue a refund of the original purchase although they have not received the original gloves in return yet. They offered to send out a complimentary replacement, which I informed them was not necessary.I did appreciate the gesture.
