Yep, the buffing can be pretty dangerous. I've had several blades jerked out of my hands and hit me or the wall or floor. Before my shop burned down I was actually thinking of building a plywood shield to stand behind while buffing. I like to put a mirror finish on my blades and that takes a lot of time on the buffer.

Jimmy, I would think that it would have to be made out of leather thick enough to be used for saddle skirting to do any good. 4 to 6 ga. leather that is used for chinks or chaps would not be enough to stop the point on a good blade. I have no idea how fast a blade is traveling when it flys of the wheel of a good buffer but it is fast and hard !!! I think it would take at least 1/4 inch plywood , blacksmith or horseshoerer aprons would not be thick enough.
