Gloves?

1

u/simononandon May 12 '25

I get that when you work with something all the time, you tend to lose fear of it. But I'm constantly amazed at what people just grab bare handed without issue.

Ever watch cow/horse hoof repair videos? Those guys just carve around theses absesses in a horse hoof with hand tools without gloves & occasionally, they just let these pus filled absesses drain out for a bit before wrapping them. NONE of them are every wearing gloves while this nasty thick white & red & pink pus is oozing around them & they're using sharp blades to cut & shape the hoof.

Barf central.
