We have our own homestead and I'm not necessarily the fastest or most accurate butcher so I always cut and make my hand when butchering so this set was the best glove for the price and quality. Best price for a set so I bought three sets early as some animals are too fatty a temperature for temple goats. I prefer not to wash the gloves although they are easy to wash I just prefer to use a new one. These gloves are not puncture proof, they are cut proof, remember that. When I use them to butcher chickens, I wash them for reuse. My son is a rock climber and uses a glove to protect his hand from cutting while climbing.
