[QUOTE="Teemore, post: 626843, member: 1375"] You may be aware of these .... they also have proven protection against the "Taipan" .... known to have the longest fangs of all our deadly snakes .... tested with a Taipan "chew" bite and no venom penetrated through to skin level. A "chew" bite is much more dangerous that just a "strike" ..... I wouldn't want either in reality. I've had a pair for over 6 years, only thing to give was the rubberised "under the shoe" strap (may have been replaced/modified on newer versions). They are standard issue as PPE for most councils down here. Better to be safe than sorry (or dead). [url]https://snakeprotex.com/about-snakeprotex-gaiters/[/url] [/QUOTE]
