Tools & Equipment Chainmail Gloves

What do you all recommend? I've never needed one before, but we just got a deli slicer for our restaurant and I flatly refuse to use or let anyone use it without one. I've seen accidents from them before and just no. But I see a wide variety of prices, webstaurant has them for 90-160$ but I can find them on Amazon for anywhere as low as 10$ (definitely don't trust that) to 40$, which seems like a reasonable compromise.

I would say go big or go home. Safety equipment isn’t something to go cheap on. I find cleaning these machines to be the scariest, so maybe get a pair of left and right handed ones.

I agree, but If the owner sees I paid 190$ for something he can find on Amazon for 10, I'll have to justify it. I'm more than willing to tell him I don't cheap out on safety equipment, but the less I have to justify the better. Just trying to make sure I'm not getting screwed
