I prefer to utilize good hooking and/or tailing technique, but know that I have the gloves on as an extra precaution. They are a great product!

I have seen gloves that are puncture resistant before, for biohazard disposal. (needles and what not) Never knew the fabric came from another company.. good information. I have at time used venom defenders as a source of restraining certain old world tree vipers, they tend to respond better to the gloves then a hook. Some times i use them to remove them from their soaking tubs. I, like you said dont recommend them as a primary source to handle a venomous snake but there are some exceptions (IMO)... Ive never even had a snake bite at the gloves. The dexterity in venom defenders is amazing, you can write fluently in pen with them on.
