I wear gloves when dealing with HOT material. Overtime... You get use to wearing gloves and your dexterity isn't affected

Newbies will wear them till they get that first red-hot spark flying out of the forge into the space between glove and skin!

I tried wearing leather gloves when straightening a metal stake in a campfire, trust me, it will cook your hand

Personally I use a left hand glove if I’m working on a large piece with lots of firescale popping off, and two gloves when heat treating.

I wear contour gloves just thin stretchy gloves with a rubber type coating on the front. gives me the best dexterity while protecting the skin

99% agree... Nothing pisses me off more than seeing someone with gloves on at a Lathe! Fastest way to go everywhere at once

yep. that's why I wear a single glove on the tong hand, and no glove in the hammer hand. or maybe a thinner nitrile glove in the hammer hand, but that's rare and only because it's cold outside. lol

Why don't they modify the tools to make them work better with gloves on?

Gloves give blisters, bad grip and make your hammer swing hurt you more

I don’t wear glove on my hammer hand. Tong hand absolutely if I’m choked up
