The NEW Quantum Series™ Gloves are lined with either the new Razornet Ultra™
(Designated as Q(5) or Razornet MAX™ (designated as Q(6). These two liner
types are at the highest levels of cut resistant performance to be found anywhere.
USA Made Razornet Ultra™ is a Damascus® proprietary blend of yarns which
feature one of the highest performance levels in cut resistant duty gloves available. The Q5 liner type / Razornet Ultra™ have been lab tested according to the
CE Certification test criteria of EN388 (European Standard) and exceed Level 5,
their highest cut resistance level.
USA Made Razornet MAX™ is a Damascus® proprietary blend of yarns (including
stainless steel fibers) which feature the highest performance in cut resistant duty
gloves available worldwide. The Q6 with Razornet MAX™ have been lab tested
according to the CE Certification test criteria of EN388 (European Standard) and
substantially exceed Level 5, their highest cut resistance level.
All of our Razornet Ultra™ and Razornet MAX™ cut resistant liners also feature
a silver-based AlphaSan® antimicrobial treatment permanently extruded into the
yarn so that it does not come out or wear off. AlphaSan® is sufficient to eliminate
a minimum 99.9 percent of bacterial or fungi growth in the glove. AlphaSan®
antimicrobial is FDA accepted for intimate sustained contact with the skin with no allergy issues. You also have the
benefit of freshness and odor control. The AlphaSan® is increasingly popular in sportswear, from socks to t-shirts etc.
These new liner types can be found in our new : DPG125Q(5), MX50-Q(6), MX1000-Q(5), as well as the following

The #1 Selling PUNCTURE Resistant Gloves in the market just got better…
Our V-FORCE™ Maximum Puncture Resistant Search Glove line is now available with
a new generation of exclusive patent-pending material called KoreFlex Micro-Armor™
available only from Damascus®.
Although the appearance of these current styles has changed only slightly the performance has considerably improved. The flexibility, comfort, and professional appearance
of the gloves using the new technology is also greatly enhanced.
You will no doubt be as impressed as we are with a material that is still so flexible and
allows such hand sensitivity, but with a level of performance that it can even bend some
hypodermic needles upon impact
NOTE: No gloves are puncture or cut PROOF, and all have their limitations.
Always use extreme caution when searching.

DKX-1 VORTEX™ from DPG : Damascus Protective Gear®
The most comfortable hybrid knee pad ever built specifically for L.E. & Military use
… just so happens to offer some serious impact protection.
They have a unique hybrid construction which combines high and low density
materials to deliver maximum “cush”, while the contoured ergonomic shape offers
superior knee pad support. Part of the DKX-1’s secret is its GEL and GEL foam
center cores which contain two types of shock-absorbing gels bonded together to
create unsurpassed comfort. The GEL also absorbs body weight and disperses it
within the pad.
• Heavy-duty, hard-shell composite cap which is truly
NON-SLIP and plants you firmly on any surface.
• The GEL cores and the unique caps then work together to produce the best possible knee zone protection
from blunt force trauma.
• Perforated breathable neoprene coated with silicon
at the tops of the pads hug the leg above the knee.
• 1000 denier nylon Cordura® braces and protects the
rest of the knee area.
• Both straps feature silicone coated strips to prevent
pads from slipping in motion, and reinforced rivets.
• Lined and protected with AEGIS Microbe Shield®
which controls bacteria and fungi that cause odor,
staining, and material deterioration.
• The ergonomic design of the DKX-1 as a unit conforms
to the knees like no other and produces superb mobility. The pads have been extensively designed specifically for law enforcement and military to produce the
highest level of durability and extended knee pad life.

CARING FOR DAMASCUS PRODUCTS
GENERAL PRODUCT CARE:
Damascus Gloves® are quality products made with the highest quality materials and can
be easily washed if done properly. While we feel our gloves are extremely durable and an
excellent value for your money, they are not indestructible and common sense does apply.
Damascus Gloves® are NOT work gloves. If you use them for rough manual labor, stacking
lumber, changing tires, expose them to extreme heat, expose them to harsh or caustic
substances, leave them to bake on the dash of your car, or allow your cat or dog to use
them for chew toys, you will likely find your gloves to be in substantially worse condition
than when you bought them. Many people find our gloves will last them several years while
others will wear them out in a few months. It all depends on how often you wear them,
how you use them, and how well you take care of them. Only you can determine whether
or not our products lived up to your expectations. If for any reason you are not completely
satisfied, please let us know about it.
Regarding Cut Resistant Gloves, while the liners are highly abrasion resistant, remember,
the leather shells of styles such as the Q5, Q6, etc. are designed for sensitivity, close fit,
and maximum dexterity. Our leathers are not cut resistant in and of themselves. As such,
the gloves must be treated in the same manner as our other all-leather gloves. While Cut
Resistant Gloves should significantly increase the wearer’s safety against sharp or highly
abrasive surfaces, if such contact is encountered, the shells can likely be permanently
damaged. We assume this is preferable to serious injury to your hands. Also, Cut glove
inserts are knitted products.
Another thing that will help extend the life of your Damascus brand handwear: be sure you
have a correct fit. Gloves that are either too tight or too loose will wear out more quickly.
Gloves should fit snugly but not tightly. If they slip on easily when first bought they will probably be too large when broken in. Conversely, even though a main feature of our gloves is
a snug close fit, don’t try to overdo it. If you’re a size Large, wear size Large gloves even if
you can force your way into a size Medium - what you will end up with is a very odd looking
restrictive pair of gloves that will split apart so on after first putting them on.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLOVES:
Leather or Leather Palmed Gloves: Leather is a porous material. Gloves that are left covered or impregnated with grit, dirt, or grime will not only look and feel unpleasant, but will
also wear out more quickly. To wash your Damascus Gloves®, remove excess grime, dirt,
etc., and gently hand wash in cool to lukewarm water using mild PH-balanced detergent.
DO NOT wash any other articles with the gloves as some of the dye will run. This is normal.
Many fine glove leather products are available, however, we find a gentle shampoo works
very well, is usually readily available, and very cost effective. Rinse thoroughly in cool to
lukewarm water. Repeat if necessary. Gently squeeze out excess water.
We also recommend thoroughly coating gloves inside and out with quality PH-balanced
hair conditioner and let stand one minute (this helps replace any leather topping oils which
may have been removed). Again, while there are many fine products on the market, we
have found hair conditioner works extremely well, is also readily available and inexpensive,
and has a pleasant fragrance. Rinse thoroughly with cool to lukewarm water. Pat dry with
towel, flatten out and shape. Lay on a flat surface and air dry. DO NOT MACHINE DRY OR
USE DIRECT HEAT OF ANY KIND ON LEATHER GLOVES. DO NOT DRY IN THE DIRECT
SUN. DO NOT USE BLEACH.
RAZORNET ULTRA™ and RAZORNET MAX™ blend knit liners can be worn alone but will
last longer if used according to design inside a glove shell. If wearing alone, avoid snags.
Hand or machine wash, warm water only. Use soap or detergent. Bleach if necessary.
Air dry at temperatures less than 120 degrees F. Inserts made with RAZORNET™ blend
yarns can be sterilized using chlorine bleach.
DuPont® Kevlar® knit liners can also be worn alone. If wearing alone, avoid snags. Hand
or machine wash. Use mild soap, NO BLEACH. Sterilize in boiling water at least 20 minutes. Air dry or tumble dry low.
Disinfecting: Unlike inserts of RAZORNET™ and Kevlar®, no leather glove can be completely disinfected against infectious pathogens, blood borne or otherwise, according
to OSHA guidelines. In the event of such contact, gloves, like your shoes, uniform, belt,
and other garments and porous accessories, must be discarded and/or incinerated.
However, a disinfectant such as liquid Lysol® brand can be applied for everyday health
concerns by adding it to the water during normal washing without damaging the gloves.
This is the preferred method. As an alternative, the gloves can also be sprayed with an
aerosol type disinfectant, allowed to dry, and repeating the process once or twice. The
interior of gloves can also be disinfected by turning them inside out and treating in the
same manner. Regardless of the manner used, the gloves should be washed thoroughly
as described previously.
Synthetic based gloves using materials such as Spandura®, Clarino® synthetic leather,
Neoprene etc. as found in our styles MX10, MX30, DNS860, etc. can be cared for much
in the same way as our leather styles. Hand washing is preferred, for longevity however
machine washing is acceptable. NO BLEACH should be used at anytime. The products are
best if air-dried.

products.

Product Care
SIZING YOUR DAMASCUS GLOVES
How to Find Your Size:
Usually one hand will be slightly larger than the other, typically the strong hand
(e.g. the right if right handed). Using a tape measure, wrap the tape around the
hand at the widest part as shown and make a loose fist. Round the measurement to the nearest whole inch.
Sizing is based on a “normal” or “standard” size hand. Unfortunately, almost no
one actually has a “standard” sized hand, no two people’s hands are the same,
and no pair of hands matches exactly. Similarly, no two pairs of gloves are exactly
alike, as each pair is cut individually and since leather is a natural product, no two
skins are exactly alike, nor is the leather uniform throughout the skin.
While we try to be exact, some gloves will have a little more stretch in the width,
and some a little less. We refer to these as “soft” (a little more stretch) and “firm”
(a little less stretch) sizes. You can check this by pinching the sides of the glove
on either side of the knuckle area and pulling outwards. A “perfect” size should
stretch about 3/4” for an unlined glove, 1” for a lightly lined glove, and 11/4” for
a thickly lined glove. A “soft” pair will have slightly more, a “firm” pair slightly less.
People with shorter fingers should try going down 1 size and trying on a “soft”
pair. People with longer fingers should go up 1 size and trying a “firm” pair. Sizing
is broader in the Damascus Hand Armor line and most are “firm” sizes.
