Victorinox Cutlery (454X) Ultrashield Cut Resistant Glove

Don’t let the look of this cut resistant glove fool you!

All white and made from a mix of large encapsulated stainless steel and polyester filament yarn spiral wrapped steel, the Victorinox Cutlery (454X) Ultrashield Cut Resistant Glove looks unlike most other cut resistant gloves.

Yet it is strong, comfortable, and works as well as or better than other types. This glove has no noticeable pattern of fibers or shields yet it is rated at ANSI cut level 7 (higher than many other brands). The glove also includes some ultra-high weight polyethylene and anti-microbial fibers to resist bacterial growth.

3) Tell us everything we need to know to help such as the type of cooker and thermometer. Dial thermometers are often off by as much as 50°F so if you are not using a good digital thermometer we probably can’t help you with time and temp questions. Please read this article about thermometers.
