When working in a kitchen with sharp knives/blades, safety should be one's primary concern. It can be very easy to cut your hand and/or fingers when working so closely with sharp tools. The best precaution to take is to wear the San Jamar MGA515M Medium 5-Finger Cut-Resistant Glove. Constructed of lightweight stainless steel mesh, these gloves provide maximum cut protection. These gloves are designed to fit either hand, and come with an antimicrobial wrist strap.
