Great glove! I use it for working with thorn bushes and such. I don't have to worry if they will penetrate the glove at all. I haven't used them for self defense. However, given how they handle the thorn bushes we have been in, I think they would be excellent! I usually wear gloves out within a month or so of use. These gloves have lasted me over 7 months of hard use now. They are just now showing signs of wear in one of the seams. I will definitely purchase these again and would highly recommend them.
