Gloves
I have never used anti-vibe gloves as such but have used cycling gloves with the gel inserts in the palm and thumb area . Moast of these are the short finger variety though some are full finger for winter use. They do seem to help and hands don't seem to swear as much. i don't know how much the Stihl gloves are. The cycling gloves run from $20.00-40.00. They can be bought on line from Bike Nashbar and Performance Bike.

The thing I like about the short finger gloves in 100 deg. weather
your hands don't slip around in them and some are vented in the back. When I finish cutting and start loading they come off and the heavy duty rough cut come on.

I am going to take a look into them I have a feeling my 440BB is going to have some vibes to it especially after a full day of cutting.

after a long day on the 460 its hard to even drink a cup of coffee the next day
I find these work the best for anti-vibe.
