Kevlar-Lined Gloves

A pair of close-fitting gloves, their palms and backs lined with a thin ballistic fibre, protecting the hands from a cut or a graze during a scuffle or a climb while a supple outer material keeps a genuine, precise sense of touch.

Their thin lining offers only modest resistance to a heavy, driven blade or a hard impact, so they suit incidental protection far better than a dedicated defensive role.
