Welders Gloves
http://www.cromwell.co.uk/shop/41031...ders-gauntlets

I'll second that.

I find that the problem with heavy gloves is that I lose so much
sensation that I become dangerous - either to plants I am pruning
or to myself.

I need to be dangerous to the brambles, so that's a bonus

How do heavy gloves make you more dangerous to yourself?

I'm guessing something along the lines of not thinking
about long flailing stems catching arms (=wear heavy
sweater) or eyes (= wear glasses) ...
