I have had mine since I worked in a Packing Plant when I was younger. A knife resistance glove for Quartering and caping a head. It’s just to easy to cut your self in the back country on a wet hill side or just tired, etc.ect.
Just Google them or at Amazon cost around $10 search Knife Proof Glove
You just need one for the hand not holding the knife. Be Safe and Good Hunting.

Good idea. I'm a big fan of rubber gloves. Makes clean up much easier.

Caping is something that the taxidermist does, not me. I am extra careful gutting something out in the field ever since I ordered one of those custom Chris Reeve folders and just touched myself with it and became a buck blood brother. I didn't know what hunting knife sharp was until I got that knife. I saw a gusher once in the packing house when a guy got cut above the glove from the guy next to him. I never want to see that again. One of those Kevlar mesh gloves sure wouldn't take up much room in a guy's pack. Good idea.

Good addition to have. Use one all the time when filleting salmon and 'eyes

I field dressed a pronghorn antelope yesterday and I knicked my thumb. Just a tiny thing, but I dissinfected it and bandaged it just to be sure. Don't want to get infected. I've knicked myself many times. But I still don't use gloves. I have enough trouble with dexterity as it is. I have tried using gloves and they just make it worse.

Chris Reeve makes a nice looking knife, but that is about as far as it goes. Sharp is sharp, edge geometry and RC is what makes a sharp knife cut and retain an edge. None of which a Chris Reeve's has. Though they are pretty!

It appears, at least with many hunters, that 'they're' going to need to put a pocket dictionary right 'there' in that pocket... in 'their' pack.

Its a gamble that you're pocket dictionary idea will be used to any noticeable affect.

Their is know way of nowing what their going to knead.

I'd rather have a bottle of water and a couple blue shop towels to clean up than a rubber glove 90% of the time. On bears, it is occasionally handy to have a pair of the thick 8 mil rubber gloves.

You should consider packing a dictionary.

Probably should pack some gloves, but I seem to have a better sense of touch, get a better grip, and a bit more dexterity going at it bare handed.

Usually work with smaller knives than most folks, but sharp is sharp regardless of size.

One of my hobbies is flint knapping and obsidian is my material of choice. That stuff cuts so clean that blood has a difficult time clotting on a smooth surface. Tiny nicks can bleed for 20 minutes before sealing. Those cuts though heal in about 24 hours.

I have used vinyl/latex gloves for a long time now. The amount of borrelia in a deer's blood can be pretty significant. Latex inside kevlar is not at all a bad idea.

Gloves are a good idea.

Although uncommon, Deer Parapoxvirus, Echinococcosis varieties, Cryptosporidiosis and E. Coli from deer that graze in cow pastures can be transmitted by contact with the fluids and blood. Contact with the deer's feces is potentially dangerous for many pathogens. Contact with the deer urine is also a potential transmission of Leptospirosis.

While unlikely, there are many other infections that can expose someone in contact with game meat.

Infection with borrellia by contact with blood...highly unlikely if at all, unless transmitted by a tick/insect bite.

Snicker bar.

I believe a lot of hunters make a serious mistake by carrying a knife than is way to big (blade to long), particularly deer hunters.
Then there are the guys that carry dull knives.
Then there are the guys that carry poor quality knives that won't hold an edge through 1 deer.
Secondly, some of us are minimalists and do not carry packs. Much of my hunting is close quarters, so I don't carry anything likely to make noise like water bottles & candy wrappers.
I admit to getting through life with fewer brains cells than many of you.
I can handle only a short list: rifle, some bullets, license, knife and a hanky. Any more than this and I am likely to forget one of the important things.

I use Playtex Handsaver gloves. They're fairly tough and reusable, high cuffs, and they come in XL. Most brands of rubber gloves are too small for me to get on.
