Frequently asked questions
Are these scissors safe to use near a patient's skin?
Yes, these scissors are specifically engineered with patient safety in mind. They feature a wide, flattened, blunt tip on the serrated blade to significantly reduce the risk of accidentally nicking a patient’s skin while cutting bandages, clothing, or drapes.
Can I use these to cut through tough surgical drapes?
Absolutely. These scissors are equipped with one serrated blade and one smooth blade, an optimized design that allows for effective and clean cutting of non-sterile materials such as surgical drapes, dressings, and casting materials.
Are these made from reliable, durable materials?
Yes, despite being disposable, these utility scissors are manufactured from stainless steel, ensuring they are strong and reliable for their intended non-sterile cutting applications.
Will these feel comfortable during extended use?
These scissors are designed for ergonomic control. They feature finger rings where one ring is larger than the other, which provides better leverage and superior control for the user during cutting procedures.

Are these scissors suitable for cutting sutures or body tissue?

What is the primary benefit of the 'econo' floor-grade design?

Are these scissors compact enough for a small emergency kit?
