I ran across this video on You Tube, and it shows why you should always wear your safety gear when you fire up your saw. The operator is cutting hams in this video, so there is no blood, but it will hold your attention. It is important to note that chaps may not prevent you from being cut, but they will jam your saw, and can greatly reduce the severity of injuries, and may save your life. Older chaps are usually oil soaked, and they do not stop a saw as effectively as new chaps. Follow the manufacturer's advice on cleaning your chaps so they will work when you need them.
Retire your chaps when they are old, oily, or cut. Cut the straps off of them so you won't be tempted to use them again. They make great pads to use on your shooting bench.
