Are black nitrile gloves any good for handling fish? (lemmy.zip)

I was wondering if I should get gloves to a) prevent my hands from stinking after handling fish, b) avoid hurting myself when descaling or cutting fish.

I see influencer chefs wear black nitrile gloves, and I was wondering if they're any good for this use case . Like, aesthetic aside, is this any useful or does this tear easily like latex gloves?

Googling seems to yield mixed results.

Thank you all in advanced

Eh probably not, they are thicker but fish bones could poke through pretty easily. Scales I think you’ll be ok.

I actually used to work at a seafood restaurant using black nitrile gloves
