You're joking, right? These gloves are designed to keep you from getting hurt from things like metal flashing - like a big paper cut, and from incidental cuts on unfinished metal in an industrial setting. If you hit your hand with a hammer while wearing them, you won't damage the glove, but you will damage your hand as much as if you weren't wearing them. Have you considered the impact speed of a saw blade tooth of any type going who knows how fast? Also, wearing gloves while using on a lathe are an invitation to disaster. Save the gloves for when you hand-sharpen the lawn mower blades. Geeez.

Anyone use them?
