Those who work with a vegetable slicer familiar with the problem that you frequently intersects with small residues or residues must work with farmers, the nerves rather than help. These gloves are a pretty good solution to this problem. You feel like something stiff knitted gloves but are flexible enough to work well with it. Most importantly, even with the sharp knife of the plane I had until now no problems - even if I am a precaution still cautious and would advise others.

In sum, I can in good conscience awarded four stars.
