Not 100% sure if your question is clear enough, but DuPont is the company behind these products - what is your planned use or needs for these gloves as specs varied along with prices ?? Industrial or non-LE use for specialized tasks - you will find them available on eBay and Amazon, or, stop at authorized LE supply store at your hometown and check them out in person. @:-) ** LE as in law enforcement

I have some leather ones (5.11 brand) got them for pretty cheap (~$10) on sale a while ago. I also second going to a LE supply store to see what they have before you buy.

I think GoTo just go put on a no fly list for any caribbean flights :~)

I have seen some at the local home depot store. Might be better than Amazon so you can actually feel the glove. Agree with Letitride3c most of them are Dupont.

I own a pair of Kevlar gloves for scuba diving so that's another track you can follow.

Curious to know why you need them, I guess that undercover operative job came though.

Mine were proposed as wreck gloves (lots of sharp and nasty things in the bowels of shipwrecks) and really came in handy in the Galápagos where we had to lizard-crawl sharp lava in a torrential current. They were 5mm neoprene, Kevlar palms and fingers like:

Other Kevlar gloves at FullSource and ULINE.

Just curious - what protects the rest of your body?

Cut/puncture resistant gloves (in the law enforcement world) are primarily designed to protect against iv needle exposure during searches, secondary to actual slashing. Sounds like you're barking up the wrong tree....

Give them your dummy wallet. Stuff it with some money and expired cards and to make it look even more real, put in an expired hotel key card as well I also have an ancient Nokia to give away in this situation.

Remember, whoever gets away from a fight unscathed, wins. It's always better not to fight but most especially don't fight people holding a knife. The knife is something to be feared. Even in a completely untrained hand an almost astray knife slash can kill.
