The ones I have are more like mitts. All the fingers are in one large pocket. It's marginally useful. I think the ones with fingers would be the way to go. One thing I have noticed about the pair I have is they are very smooth. Once you get some grease from the met on them it makes it very hard to keep a grip on anything. So those Gecko gloves look like they would be an improvement as they have ridges on the edges of the bumps instead of being 100% smooth. I do have 3 pairs of the Ove-gloves. They had them in the mark down bin at Kroger for like $2 a pair and I bought all they had. Great for hot pans, but I've never tried to pick up meat directly with them.
I saw some "hot hands" silicone gloves on TV the other night. $9.95 a pair (plus the usual shipping and handling I presume). They look a lot like the Gecko gloves.
