xShear® 7.5” Extreme Duty Trauma Shears - Black Titanium Coated Blades, The perfect scissors for the Paramedic, EMT, Nurse or any Emergency Healthcare Provider (Pink/Black)

I use the XShear 7.5” Extreme Duty Trauma Shears almost every day in the emergency department, and they perform flawlessly. They are extremely well-made, durable, and built to handle any cutting task I throw at them. fit perfectly to my hand. Simple to open. sleek and portable. This is actually my second pair, which says a lot about how much I rely on them. Compared to every other pair of shears I’ve used, these are far superior—stronger, sharper, and more reliable. Whether I’m cutting through clothing, bandages, or equipment, they never let me down. For anyone in a high-demand medical or emergency setting, these shears are absolutely worth it. Period.

I wanna address the pants issue that people are having; watch the video, you probably just have a different style than other people that are leaving the “they don’t fit” reviews. At first glance, these things are the real deal. I’ve personally been waiting for a reason to get my hands on them and I eventually ran into an ER nurse that had a pair. Seeing them in person and watching them cut smoothly finally sold me. Are these worth $40? Yes. If you work in the medical field / EMS, doubly so. Usually I carry 2 pair of shears in case one decides to break down on me but after grabbing these I can free up some space lol. I hate to say I want to use them on a call myself but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t excited to break them in. They’re THICCC shears; I’d say you could melt down almost 3 disposable shears and melt them down into how thick the blades are. They can pass the ‘penny test’ which is pretty dope. I’m not gonna go out of my way to cut a penny but knowing that someone else has in their review is cool. The grips are very nice. Since they’re a soft rubber on the handles, there’s no room for error with regards to how disposables have the stamped plastic that’s usually sharp or not filed down. Gloves won’t snag on these handles. The blades are pretty slick. I like the flat smooth tips compare to how the disposables have that weird kinda flat notch on one blade. Do they fit in EMS pants? Depends on the pants. The video I uploaded covers what 5.11 sells so make your own judgement there. I recommend these. I will use these until they break and I don’t see that happening for a hot minute. Eventually I’ll upload an edit to this review after I’ve spent more time with them and have them worn in pretty well. Also, I am an EMT for reference incase that helps. *EDIT* ONE MONTH POST PURCHASE: Alright so recently I had a trauma call for a woman with a broken hip. If you are in the medical field you know that rule number one with trauma is to get'em naked so I finally flexed these bad boys. These shears are DEFINITELY the real deal. I was able to smooth right through a pair of jeans from the ankle to the waist as well as a belt that overlapped on itself (1cm thick of leather) with extreme ease. Above in this review I mentioned that they were a little stiff to operate initially BUT when you are going through the paces and in the heat of the moment, you don't even notice. I've cut through nasal cannula tubing, now jeans with a belt, and other miscellaneous things during the month I've owned them and I don't think I could recommend these enough. 100% worth the buy and I may even mess around and buy another set in blue. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY reccomend. *EDIT: THREE MONTHS LATER* So I want to address the pants issue what I spoke about with the shears initially. I ended up making the shears fit PERFECTLY when I put the blade into the pen holder and use the Velcro latch on my pats to go through the handle. By sacrificing the pen slot on my cargo pocket, it completely eliminated the pulling and stretching on the tab. This worked for both pants. Just make sure you feed the Velcro tab through the small handle on the shears and guide the blades into the pen pocket. As far as quality goes, the xShears are still kicking major butt. At this point I’ve cut through boots, belts, heavy denim, thick leather (the belt from the above review and some more) and they are still brand new. I’m beyond satisfied with this purchase and I’ll be buying another one for my partner as a Christmas gift. 10/10, no regrets. EDIT: One Year Later - Last review Still in EMS and I’ve used them at least once for the past 365 days. Still amazingly sharp like the day I got’em and are apart of my EDC. You can cut from the ankle to the neck of someone in about 15 seconds if your hand doesn’t cramp; I’ve done it with them. At this point, it’s knowing that I have reliability on my leg when I’m in the crap of calls. If you’ve read this far, just get’em dude.

I used the Leatherman Raptors for a long time, but I finally made the switch to these and I’m not looking back. The biggest issue with the Raptors is all the folding parts and hinges. They eventually get "gunked up" with... well, everything you encounter on the job. Once blood or fluids get into those tiny crevices, they are a total nightmare to deep clean. Plus, over time, all those moving parts just start to feel loose. The XSHEAR is just better for daily use: • Simple & Clean: These are a solid piece of gear. No folding hinges or hidden spots for gross stuff to hide. You just wipe them down and you’re good to go. • Built to Last: Because they don't fold, they feel way sturdier. There’s no "play" in the blades, and they don't get wobbly after a few months of heavy use. • Performance: They cut just as well (if not better) than the Raptors, but without the headache of maintaining a "multitool." If you’re tired of scrubbing gunk out of your folding shears with a toothbrush, just get these. They’re tougher, simpler, and way easier to keep sanitary.

I recently started using a pair of trauma shears, and they have quickly proven to be an indispensable tool that I use daily. Here’s why I highly recommend these trauma shears: The build quality of these trauma shears is outstanding. They are made from high-quality stainless steel, which gives them a robust and durable feel. Even after extensive use, they show no signs of bending or wear. The sturdy construction ensures that they can handle tough materials like thick clothing, seat belts, and even leather without any difficulty. One of the most impressive features of these trauma shears is their sharpness. The blades are precisely honed to provide a clean, effortless cut every time. They slice through tough materials with ease, reducing the effort needed and allowing for quick and efficient action in emergency situations. This sharpness is crucial for ensuring that cuts are made swiftly and safely, which is particularly important in trauma scenarios. These trauma shears are designed to perform reliably in critical situations. The sharp, serrated edge grips materials securely, preventing slippage and ensuring a precise cut. This reliability is essential for medical professionals, first responders, and anyone who needs to be prepared for emergencies. The shears feature an ergonomic handle design that makes them comfortable to use for extended periods. The handles are designed to provide a secure grip, reducing hand fatigue and ensuring better control. This design is especially beneficial when making multiple cuts or working in stressful situations. These trauma shears also come with rounded tips, which help to protect patients from accidental cuts or punctures. This safety feature is particularly important when working close to the skin or when cutting through clothing near a wound. The stainless steel construction makes these shears easy to clean and sterilize, ensuring they remain hygienic and ready for use at all times. This ease of maintenance adds to their overall practicality and longevity. Overall, these trauma shears are a top-notch tool that combines sturdiness, sharpness, and reliability. They are perfect for medical professionals, first responders, or anyone who needs a reliable cutting tool for emergency situations. I highly recommend these trauma shears for their exceptional performance, durability, and user-friendly design. If you’re looking for a dependable pair of shears that will stand up to the toughest tasks, these trauma shears are an excellent choice.

I recently purchased my second pair of xShears, and I have to say, I’m just as impressed as I was with my first pair! The main reason I ordered this new pair? I couldn’t resist the awesome color options—purely a style choice! My original pair, which I’ve had for about five years, is still going strong. They’re as sharp and functional as the day I got them, even after putting them through the wringer cutting through Sam splints, zippers, and tough clothing. There are a few minor nicks in the blade from heavy use, but they still cut like a dream. I’m blown away by how lightweight yet incredibly durable these shears are. Thank you, xShears, for making such a reliable, high-quality product that holds up year after year! Highly recommend to anyone needing a dependable pair of shears.

I saw a lot of people on Reddit recommend these shears, so I decided to give them a try. They weren’t lying at all. This thing is sharp and very well built. I love how easy it is to clean and maintain, and it feels great in my hand.

I've been carrying X-Shears since they were originally launched and love these shears. Without any doubt, the best quality and best cutting shears you'll find. They're heavy, with thick blades, and incredibly sharp. The handles fit nicely in your hand, and it takes minimal effort to cut. I frequently get complements and comments of amazement from coworkers who want to try them. (Word of caution - Be very careful who you hand your X-Shears to, because my first set grew legs and never came home.) They make clothing removal incredibly easy and fast (we all know how impatient us EMTs/Medics/Firefighters get). I especially enjoy cutting shirts, because I've found that while I have to cut the length of the shirt with cheap shears (snip-snip-snip....), with the X-Shear I can bunch the shirt up in my hand and make one single snip through the bunched up shirt, cutting it all at once. Easier and faster is always a win. Jeans, leather, thick canvas... no challenge to these shears. The main negative for me - Because of the shape, I find that I can't get these into the outside pouch (with the loop strap) on my 5.11 Duty Pants. I carried plain shears there for years and was used to that spot, but these don't seat quite deep enough and the strap won't loop through the handle. So, I carry these inside the cargo pocket instead, but that does risk putting a dirty hand inside the pocket. This slight inconvenience in carrying is the reason for losing 1 star - Otherwise they'd be a perfect 5. Also, be mindful that these will be very popular and might wander if you let someone use them. I'm on my second set (after replacing the first set that wandered), and I've also purchased (these) pink ones for my girlfriend. I don't hesitate to recommend them to anyone who asks. Yes, your employer may provide the cheap ones to you or you get some free at a class, but you know what? Sometimes it's worth paying a bit to have the right tool for the job.

Bought for my elderly mother in law so she is not carrying knife pointed sewing scissors around when balance etc are an issue. She loves these, the handles are comfortable, they are real scissors, are extremely sharp and well built. She was not happy we did not want her using her fancy sewing shears, but now she goes on about how good these are. I am considering buying my own, not pink of course.

Other than it’s great.

Excelente corte e firmeza durante o uso. Por cerca de 15 anos usei uma tesoura daquelas simples mas que são úteis em resgate e APH. Agora adquiri esta XShear pra eternidade. Colocarei adesivo vermelho florescente pra ser vista, rapidamente, em meu uniforme.

Very good quality and easy to cut things like jeans, and any field dressing. Leverage is good but note these are not compound type pivots, but for a single pivot it has enough leverage and the blades short enough for medical field kits and carry.

Ohne Zweifel die beste Schere auf dem Markt. Das Ding geht wie Butter durch jede Motorradkombi, notfalls auch durch Handys, Schlüssel, Geldbeutel….(alles selbst erlebt) Klar man kann sie nicht falten aber muss man auch nicht, absolut geniale robuste Schere. Kaufe nix anderes mehr.
