My exact first thoughts too

Then you gotta question comfort, quality and longevity also.

I get emails every week from these companys wanting to supply us....not interested.

Trev,

Why don't you contact these dudes and do some testing yourself or if you can get a couple of pairs send a pair up to Eric so he can video himself giving them the chopo

Chainsaw pants that cut

I will get a pair and do a log test on them,the China market and dynamics are so diffrent to what we know as "normal"

This extract from an earthmoving equipment supplier is a real eye opener IMO

looking at sourcing product from China I hear you ask? The forecast is that their construction equipment market is going to sell 900,000 machines in 2010, growing to 1,400,000 machines in 2012. To put this into perspective, China will buy 83,000 excavators this year, which is virtually equal to the entire North American sales of all earth moving machines combined. With such a strong domestic market ready to soak up any available production capacity at the standard they currently manufacture to, for many factories, changing production and accommodating a higher quality standard to meet export requirements is not a high priority. Much of the product that is available is “take it as is, or leave it”.

i always remember one of my instructors telling the story of the pair of chainsaw trousers that were used as a demonstration of what occurs when you cut into them, apparently there was blood on them where two guys had had tried out the "no cut" trousers with a full revving 660 it went straight through into the guys leg DOH! you just couldn't make that stupidity up

Epic! I was thinking along the lines of get some solid bit of meat from a butcher and have the camera focus on that, cut into the pants and have someone scream.

Being safety equipment in a professional environment, wouldn't they need to be to Australian Standards or something?

There is AS/NZS 4453.3:1997 but you have to buy it.

However there was an amendment which is free, it says:-

Quote:
2.5 RESISTANCE TO CUTTING When the protective trousers or leggings are
tested in accordance with AS/NZS 4453.2 for design A and B trousers at a chain speed
of 20 m/s there shall be no cut through of the protective material.
