Stainless Steel Mesh — The Highest Standard Cut Rating
This black stainless steel mesh glove is built for serious cut protection when working with sharp blades, slippery meat, shellfish, and demanding kitchen prep.
Why Stainless Mesh Matters
Cut-resistant fabrics can help with light protection, but this glove uses woven stainless steel mesh, the same principle used in chainmail, to stop blade contact before it reaches the skin.
Level 5 Cut Resistance
Cut resistance for protective gloves is rated on a scale, with Level 5 being the highest standard rating and indicating 100% cut protection against blade contact.
The Non-Knife Hand Is Most at Risk
When boning, trimming, or shucking, the hand holding the knife is under direct control. The other hand, the one steadying or holding the product, is the one most often nicked or cut.
Protection When Working Fast or Wet
The glove is especially useful when product is slippery, wet, or difficult to hold, because it protects the supporting hand against accidental contact.
Protects Against Slips, Shell Edges, and Close Blade Passes
Boning a leg of lamb, trimming silverskin from beef, breaking down chicken, or opening oysters all place the supporting hand close to sharp edges. The stainless steel mesh helps stop a slip from becoming a cut.
Meat Processing
Useful for boning, trimming, game processing, and breaking down larger cuts around sharp blades.
Oyster Shucking
Helps protect against both the shucking knife slipping and sharp shell edges.
Kitchen Prep
Suitable for general prep where the supporting hand works close to sharp blades.
Available Sizes
Washable to 100°C and Left-Right Wearable
The stainless steel mesh can be washed at high temperature, which matters for hygiene in food processing contexts. The glove is not handed, so it can be worn on whichever hand needs protection for the task.
Best For
Home butchery and game processing alongside the Landig W100 Meat Grinder and 3L Sausage Filler, oyster and shellfish preparation, and anyone working with sharp blades on the kitchen bench who wants reliable protection on the supporting hand.
Colour Option
Black colourway shown. Also available in white with the same woven stainless steel mesh construction and Level 5 cut resistance rating.
