Monkey Knife-fight

I was just wondering if anyone out there has used EMT scissors like:

with thick wetsuit gloves? It seems like maybe it would be a pain to get your fingers into the handle holes with 7mil gloves. I'm basically trying to decide between those and:
http://www.leisurepro.com/Catalog.aspx?op=ItemDisplay&ProductID=OMSKS
for an xmas gift and the only real potential difference i can see is maybe the OMS shears would be easier with thick gloves that my buddy and i are gonna be usually wearing. I really don't expect to have to use either very often but they seem like nice utilitarian tools should the need arise (and i really hope it never does). So if anyone has used either of these kinds of shears with thick gloves and has any opion that would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: btw I'm a newby so don't really know what situations call for cutting in reality but i'm going to be diving in Northern California with lots of kelp etc...
Thanks!
