I cannot specifically comment on these particular gloves. What I can say is, I have purchased a number of Kevlar gloves (fingerless) off of Ebay (in the $4-6 range) for use in rescue situations. I use them both as a stand-alone glove for some thermal/abrasion protection while setting up technical rescue systems and in combination with my regular leather gloves (I wear them over the leather gloves) for helicopter evacs, where we are controlling a tag line, as a substantial amount of heat is generated. I have never had any problems and find them to be a valuable asset.
