Benzidine is not a problem.
Gloves are cut resistant and comfortable. I haven't washed them yet but they feel thick enough to protect yet thin enough to not affect handling of cutting implements.There's no easy way to respond directly to the negative reviews freaking out over the Prop 65 warning. I thought I could share a few thoughts on this and why I'm not concerned that you find such a warning on a pair of kitchen gloves.California required this warning on anything that contains ingredients that could conceivably metabolize into benzidine. Note the wording is not "This product contains benzidine", but "This product can expose you to. . ."This is important.Benzidine is an occupational carcinogen and is no longer legal for dye manufacturing. It was responsible for a higher incidence of bladder cancer for workers who were exposed directly to it in large amounts for hours a day, for months on end. The benzidine passes harmlessly through your system until it is collected in the bladder, where it can cause problems if it is constantly present. For this to happen you need constant, long-term exposure. For this chemical to cause cancer in dogs, the only other animal in which bladder cancer is caused, they needed to administer it at a dosage of 100 mg/kg of weight daily for a full year.There is likely less that 100 mg of dye in total in these gloves. Dye simply does not appreciably increase the mass of an item. However, even that 100mg of dye likely contains very little, if any, benzidine. Such a dye would be illegal and certainly if it was being used a company wouldn't call attention to it. Instead, there are ingredients used in dyes that may contain some "impurities" that can metabolize into benzidine. If any of these ingredients are present in the manufacturing process, California requires the warning that the end product "can expose you to" the chemical.So, in short, even if the gloves were dyed with pure benzidine-based dyes you would need to actually eat a pair for every kilogram of your body weight, daily, for a year in order to have a measurably increased risk of cancer. However, the gloves likely do NOT contain a benzidine based dye, but instead a trace impurity (such as Nitrobenzene) that can turn into benzidine under certain conditions, so you would need to eat thousands or tens of thousands of pairs per day in order to be at-risk.In short, don't eat the gloves.

Great protection
I use these gloves for handling waterfowl to avoid my hands getting scratched up. Very tight weave, haven't been sliced yet by duck claws while wearing them.

So great, someone at work stole both of them!
Works as expected. Had my name sewn on after arrival.I was working as a fish cutter at the time and cutting gloves were a must. The fit was great, I was able to wear them with a food service rubber glove over it and still cut well.I washed them by hand and they’d dry pretty quickly. Had them drying at work and left them unattended, someone liked them so much they took them. I didn’t replace them as o left that job not long after, but I’d purchase them again for such work.

Great Gloves
They fit well, gotta break them in a little bit. Definitely serves their purpose. Liked that they had color choices so that people won’t use my cut gloves on mistake.

Love them!
I do a lot of barbecue and do large events. I get in a hurry and usually cut myself. These gloves are great. They protect your hands but aren’t cumbersome at all. I can comfortably wear them all day. They are also great for filleting fish. You can hold the fish better and make better cuts. Would definitely recommend.

Saved my hands!
I recently started wood carving. When I started, I had no gloves...well that went well! After cutting my hands/fingers a few times, I decided to be safe and bought a pair of gloves. I usually don't wear a glove on the hand which I use for carving, but that other hand has thanked me. They fit my small hands nicely and don't swim on my hands. The grip on the wood is good and the fabric doesn't get in the way of the cut. One enthusiastic cut, and my hand did thank me again!

Saved my thumb five times first time I used a mandoline slicer
Bought these to use with a mandoline slicer. Loved the slicer, but the handle to hold the veggies/fruit was "meh". Using the glove saved my thumb and fingers at least five times the first time I used the slicer. It's easy to get carried away and forget how close you are to the blade. (I was slicing radishes) Aside from a teeeeensy bit of fraying on the orange yarn, the gloves are completely undamaged.I'm a woman, 5'6" tall, with average sized hands. The medium fits me beautifully.I think these are probably supposed to be a pair, though they're constructed flat, so if you like, you can have two right gloves (or two left gloves). Since you only need one hand protected if you're using a mandoline slicer, it's kinda a two-for-one deal.I will be using these EVERY time I use my mandoline slicer.

Not poke resistant
These are just tightly woven gloves. I didn't test whether you can get cut with them on, but you can get thorns and stickers threw them. Not good for weeding.
