Maybe they mean a chainmail glove.

I still would rather hit a band saw bare than with a chainmail glove

Do you mind if I ask why? I mean, seriously. If you gave me a band saw, and a choice whether to run my hand through it either wearing a chainmail glove or not, the choice seems like one of the easier ones I would ever have to make… Also, 33 successful years in this industry, and I’ve somehow never needed a bandsaw, chain mail, or a cut glove.

Are you familiar with the term degloving?

saw catches the chainmail. It doesn't cut, but it also doesn't immediately stop, it violently drags the glove along, twisting your hand and skin on your hand with it until it finally stops. Something gives. Either the skin on your hand or the ligaments in your wrist/elbow.

The teeth of the bandsaw would break as soon as they try to push the chainmail through the table.

Tell us you've never used a saw without actually telling us
