I imagine he is just going for finger tip injuries like toe
injuries, can't protect everything. My wife lost a fingertip at her
old job when her glove caught in the machine and pulled her in.
Either bare hands or these gloves might have stopped that.<br>

I did once have a heavy part fall off a piece of equipment I picked
up (didn't know anything was unbolted) and it fell on a fellow
worker's foot...just behind the steel toe. So, nothing is perfect.<br>
