Product description
Folding trauma shears: a close cut without harming what's underneath
Trauma shears, also called paramedic scissors, are scissors with an angled blade and a wide, rounded lower tip. This tip slides under the fabric, bandage or tape and stays flat against what's underneath while the upper blade cuts. This model folds to a compact size, and the handle has a clip for hanging on a belt, bag or strap.
The scissors are available in two shades, black and blue, and suit first aid kits, field work and work in general. They have a use in sewing too: cutting a seam, elastic or tape close to the fabric, without piercing it.
How this model differs from our similar models
Folding trauma shears with clip (the model on this page): black or blue, hanging clip on the handle
Trauma shears with a gold-tone blade: black handle, no clip
Green folding tactical scissors: the blades fold completely into the handle
What trauma shears are and why the blade is bent
Trauma shears were developed for the work of emergency crews: to cut clothing off an injured person quickly, without harming the skin. Two design details make the difference:
Angled blade: the blade is bent relative to the handle, so the handles stay above the body and the lower blade lies flat
A wide, rounded lower tip: slides along the skin or the fabric underneath, instead of digging into it
The same principle is useful outside medicine too: cutting packing straps, bands and elastic, and cutting seams in garments.
Common uses
First aid kits for home, car and organizations
Cutting bandages, tape and fabrics close to the body or to fabric

Carrying on a belt, bag or strap

Usage tips
The rounded tip down: slide it under the material you're cutting and advance in short cuts
Hang on the clip: that way the scissors are immediately available
Clean after use: especially after working with adhesive or bandages
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
Cutting very hard materials: the model is intended for fabric, bandages and soft materials
Using it as a screwdriver or a lever: may bend the blade and the folding mechanism
Wet storage: wipe and dry the blade and the pivot

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
What are trauma shears?
Scissors with an angled blade and a wide, rounded bottom tip that slides under a garment or bandage and lets you cut close to the body without harming the skin. They are also called EMT shears.
Why is the blade of trauma shears bent?
So the lower blade lies flat against the body or the fabric while the handles stay above it. This makes it easy to advance the cut without lifting what is underneath.
What is the clip used for?
For hanging on a belt, bag or strap, so the scissors are immediately available.
In which shades do the scissors come?
In black and blue.
Do the scissors fold?
Yes. They fold to a compact size for carrying and storage.
What are they suitable for besides first aid?
For the field and for hiking, for cutting tapes and straps, and in sewing for cutting seams and elastic close to fabric without piercing it.
What is the difference between these and the green folding tactical scissors?
Here the blade is exposed but the tip is rounded and there is a hanging clip. In the green model the blades go entirely into the handle.
Are they suitable for left-handed users?
They are built for the right hand.
How do you care for them?
Wipe after use, dry and occasionally add a drop of oil to the pivot.
