Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a protective glove with a minimum of material waste and improved design. By having two separate sheets joined together, the design of the two sheets is possible to make in order to minimize the spillage of material. The attachment of the various sheets to each other adjacent the transition between the fingers and the palm and close to the base of the finger(s) reduces the problem of the sheets curling up into a lump of metal when the glove is used. Additionally, the protective layer can be attached to the inner layer or the outer layer of the protective glove to protect it and prevent it from being dislocated.

Problems solved by technology

A further problem with prior art is also that when the glove has been used, after a while the sheets of the protective layer in the palm portion closest to the fingers tend to curl up into a lump of metal.
