I keep bustin' through my gloves digging up glass. So please tell me your favorite brands/types that you like to get for digging in the ground.

Have you tried those cut-proof gloves which are reinforced with wire mesh? I've never used them myself but I remember seeing them recommended on here before. Not sure how durable they are long-term.

I'm a fan of leather gloves and being careful; but you might also want to look into Oyster Shucking Gloves and Butchering Gloves. Both types are supposed to resist cutting; and the Oyster Shucking Gloves resist punctures as well. An Amazon search for "Oyster Shucking Gloves and Butchering Gloves" produced 21 results.

Not to veer too far off topic, but it amazes me that no one has cut the crap out of themselves on Oak Island. They wear all this PPE, but I've yet to see the first glove.

Stealth Phantom if I'm handling steel, Samurai hot foam if it's real cold outside. That's what I use for construction work anyways (based on a moderate amount of research, and lots of "hands-on") lol
