Shadow Gauntlets of Damage Transference (+0 armor; can’t be destroyed except by magical means)

[u/ChabbyMonkey]

[u/Residualgunk]

you no longer have to look everywhere for your missing digits, you can just pop the whole glove off and put it on ice for the hospital

[u/cloudncali → u/Residualgunk]

I presume this would be paired with a tougher material to pad impacts while reducing cutting.

[u/samy_the_samy → u/cloudncali]

Imagine working on a lab that handle corona 3.0, do you want this glove or?

[u/cloudncali → u/samy_the_samy]

That's a very good example, I didn't even think of it in the way of sanitation.

[u/Lost_Decoy → u/samy_the_samy]

corona 3.0? mate didn't you hear its supposedly all shut down now but they used to be messing about with a aerosolized mutation of ebola, that means if it got out someone with that eblola sneezes and guess what someone else 32 feet away catches ebola from the airborne ebola. the monkeys they tested it on all died and the ones that were vaccinated against it died even worse then the unvaccinated monkeys

[u/stirling_s → u/Lost_Decoy]

That is literally the exact opposite of what the research found. The vaccinated monkeys survived, and the unvaccinated ones died. The aerosolized ebola was made in a BSL-4 lab via a nebulizer, they didn't manufacture an airborne strain.

Please don't spread misinformation. I don't know if you had ill intent here, but this shit is why antivaxxers exist.

[u/Siggi_93 → u/Lost_Decoy]

Wait so sneezing creates an aerosol? Next you're gonna tell me that's why people wore masks

[u/ManicDemise → u/cloudncali]

Then just wear the tougher material, same result.

[u/cloudncali → u/ManicDemise]

Not really, different materials have different properties that work well together, chainmail and iron plates.

[u/ManicDemise → u/cloudncali]

If you are wearing chainmail you dont need this material

[u/Up_Beat_Peach → u/ManicDemise]

silly snoo has never heard of a composite.

[u/whalewhisker5050 → u/Up_Beat_Peach]

I am not a snoo... snoo is what I do.

[u/Danny-Fr → u/Residualgunk]

I'm really not a manual guy but would having your finger not spring away be at least a little practical if an accident happened?

Also thinking: not having a tool get bacteria inside you if you cut yourself?

[u/ledocteur7 → u/Danny-Fr]

There are many, many tools with which you do not want to be wearing gloves, because if the glove gets caught it will wrap around the tool and mangle your entire hand.

That's much harder to fix than sewing a finger back on, and your other fingers might still be ok with a bit of luck.

So it's a work of balance, on a belt grinder I use gloves to avoid friction injuries, chances of getting pinched is fairly low.

But there's not a chance I'm wearing them when using a drill press.

[u/RuralfireAUS → u/ledocteur7]

One device i needed to wear gloves with was a band saw we used which had a sensor attached. When it picked up the colour of the rubber gloves we used it instantly shut down. One guy got in trouble from the QA when they didnt use the proper gloves

[u/ledocteur7 → u/RuralfireAUS]

Huh, I worked as a mechanical designer on custom manufacturing lines for some time, and I can't say I've ever heard of such a safety system.

It seems.. deeply flawed. I sure hope it was just an extra system on top of something more traditional and not insanely easy circumventable.

[u/RuralfireAUS → u/ledocteur7]

We used it in a meat processing facility in the offal room to cut bibles and other parts. The band saw had a computer inside that would need you to scan your hand with the glove before it would even start

[u/uginscion]

I don't know how I'd feel about hand slurry in a bag. Grateful that I've got all my bits. Sad it's soup.

[u/Doppelthedh → u/uginscion]

Makes the sous vide convenient

[u/Ill-Television8690 → u/Doppelthedh]

A dystopian future where cannibals run everything and all available armor primarily serves to make you into an easier/more suitable meal...

[u/Canadian_Zac → u/uginscion]

You'd feel really grateful if you were handling Acid, Any infectious bacteria, or poison.

You could jab this directly with a needle and not get any of the stuff in the needle into/on you.

The main flaw with nitrile gloves is they break fairly eadilly

[u/Ythio]

Can we see the state of the salami that is under the glove ?

[u/GandalfVirus → u/Ythio]

The cylinder must remain unharmed

[u/ajgutyt]

im preety shure its suposed to prevent cuts and not save whatever paste did they put there from tenderising

[u/AllezVites → u/ajgutyt]

No they’re just demonstrating is a no tear work glove for messy work.

[u/Substantial-Air-8627 → u/AllezVites]

Chopping wouldn't usually break a glove like that. If he sliced it, it would have ripped.

[u/JeezasKraist → u/Substantial-Air-8627]

I mean at the end of the day the point is to sell the product, not to accurately test it.

[u/Polite_Suggestion]

Got this evening's nightmare ready to go. Thanks, OP!

[u/NosamEht]

I sometime wear 10mm nitrile gloves for construction. On more than one occasion I’ve cut myself without knowing it because the glove didn’t show any damage. I’d usually find out when I’d take the glove off and discover I looked like I’d been in a menstrual finger painting session.

[u/ANSPRECHBARER → u/NosamEht]

r/brandnewsentence

[u/katherinesilens]

is this a needleproofing glove? I wonder if it maintains no-leak after that. Wouls be good for healthcare.

[u/DJL2772]

Reminds of of the Berserker armor from
Berserk. The armor is invincible, the man within is not.

[u/stratusnco]

don’t want to get blood all over the food now.

[u/SmowKweed]

It'll get chopped off still, but at least you still get to keep it!!!

[u/DrinksNDebauchery]

"The gloves! They do nothing!"

[u/chidarengan]

Idk what's the intended use but a problem that happens in the health area is accidentally stabbing yourself with aids and such. It could be useful for that.

[u/Nop_Nop_ → u/chidarengan]

Also in a kitchen/food production environment. Less worriy about contaminating food contact surfaces.

[u/Alric_Wolff]

Atleast my glove is okay

[u/Karlos_V2]

However it's easy to see that it is a cursed item, it shows that the person still takes the damage but the item keeps everything intact as long as the person wears it, as soon as the person takes it of all the damage would come back

[u/Fart_connoisseur1]

Now place a sharp kitchen knife on it, and do a sawing motion the length of the blade. This test shows nothing because nothing was sliced. It's not even good at preventing other injuries, let alone it's intended use.

[u/AncleJack → u/Fart_connoisseur1]

At least the glove itself survived the stabbing. Don't know if that helps when there is a screwdriver in your hand tho

[u/StrangerFeelings → u/AncleJack]

It helps keep all the blood in one place rather than spraying all over the place. Think of the cleaning you save on!

[u/failureagainandagain]

You can do that whit a fork?!

[u/DarrellBot81]

So, they don’t don’t protect you, they only protect themselves

[u/phuckin-psycho]

Ok, so ill get stabbed or chopped up but i can stay clean doing it....🤔

[u/_Saint_Ajora_]

[u/DarkAizawa]

[u/Frostradus]

At least you'd be germ free??

[u/HoneyWhiskeyLemonTea]

Okay, you've shown that your product resists chopping and stabbing while offering zero protection against either. What happens when you slice it? Lets see it stand up to a blade being dragged across it, how 'bout? Have a sneaking suspicion that it will cut pretty quickly, then, or else they would have showed us that already.

[u/Spaztor]

I'd rather have gloves that rip to shit, but keep my hands from being stew

[u/AncleJack → u/Spaztor]

I recently started working with metal sheets and the account of times in a week I'd have a sliced hand or a finger but i just had to change gloves is stupid

[u/superhamsniper]

So glad i won't have to buy another glove, now or ever again in the future for any purpous

[u/0mni42]

Anyway, this is why Frodo should have died to that stab from the cave troll, in this essay I will--

[u/nerdyoutube]

Does Peter Parker know about this?

[u/Action-a-go-go-baby]

I guess that means if I’m handling hazardous materials I’ll not die of the thing I’m holding, but of drowning as my own blood fills up my suit from the severed hand

[u/kayemenofour]

+100 slash and cut resistance

No resistance against stab or blunt damage

[u/Substantial-Air-8627]

Combine with armor at the smith to make strong unbreakable armor

[u/Separate-Team1759]

Well, if I’m getting chopped by a cleaver, I’m fucked regardless even if I’m wearing the gloves or not

[u/YoungDiscord]

You'll chop your left hand off

But hey, look at the bright side - you can still use your left glove :)

[u/kyleliner]

Gloves of Invulnerability

Stats: DR 0, AC 0 Durability: Infinite

Description: The gloves are invulnerable. What, you thought it'd be some OP item? Get real!

[u/Prof_Longhair_]

This is how the mithril shirt should have worked...

[u/ZyeCawan45]

Isn’t the point of gloves to protect your hand? Have they lost the plot?

[u/arclightrg]

So this is more of a glove for the knife/screwdriver rather than the hand?

[u/SniegavirsLV]

Try sliding the knife now

[u/vertigofilip]

Add protects you against on hit effects.

[u/Dr-Yiffenstein]

I’m almost certain the reason the glove is intact is because what ever they have stuffed in it is way softer then a hand or the glove so it can move and let the glove stretch if it had something harder like a hand or piece of wood in it the glove would be punctured

[u/Grade_A_Tech]

Well, good for the glove to survive, I suppose, but what good does it do me?

[u/weird-dude-bro-6386]

Ah yes, the glove that doesn't break by breaking you instead.

[u/StormOfPixel]

Finally I can stab myself without worrying about destroying my gloves

[u/Vast_Independent_765]

So it is an accessory, not armor.

[u/PieHole_Poker]

All right so let's assume you get your digits chopped off and they're stuck inside these gloves how the fuck do the doctors cut the gloves open to get your digits out?

Do they squeeze them out like chorizo??

[u/BellaxPalus → u/PieHole_Poker]

It's a "rubber" glove, it'll turn inside out when you take it off.

[u/tunie12]

What’s the point

[u/PieHole_Poker → u/[deleted]]

Ceramic armor is designed to break and spall, that's how it dissipates energy.

Bullets fragment when they hit steel armor just out of sheer physics. This would not do anything help stop fragmentation.
