I use a composite box-toe boot... which, incidentally, doesn't conduct electricity, and doesn't turn your toes ice-cold in the winter time.

I'd have been happier with the videa if the guy who was *trying* to cut the steel toe actually got a little aggressive and made it look like he was *actually* trying to cut the steel toe, instead of limp wristing it and letting it just slide off. Just my take on it.

I agree that PPE only goes so far, the way you work and being aware of the end of your bar are more important. Can't say I've ever nicked my boots before.
