Cut resistant gloves work by using specialized materials, such as Kevlar or Dyneema, that are designed to resist cuts and punctures. These materials have strong molecular structures that make them highly resistant to sharp objects. The gloves are constructed by weaving or knitting these fibers into a fabric that is then coated or impregnated with a protective layer for added grip and durability. When a sharp object comes into contact with the glove, the fibers distribute the force and create resistance against the cutting motion. This helps prevent the blade from cutting through the glove and protecting the wearer's hands from injury. While cut-resistant gloves provide a high level of protection, it's important to note that they are not completely cut-proof and their effectiveness depends on the specific glove and the force applied.
