Innovation sometimes comes from common items around us, and the Finger Guard is probably a great example of this. Based on the old fortune teller paper game, the guard is designed to protect fingers from hot surfaces. The silicone heat resistant guard protects in temperatures up to 600ºF, handy for hot things that you would like to pick up.
Of course, there is no knuckle protection, so use in an oven where you could potentially bump a knuckle against a hot surface is probably best avoided. Another thing to avoid is to reach into hot water to retrieve, for example, an egg. If you were to accidentally get it in water too deep your fingers would become their own soup du jour.
