Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 46001 Take-A-Part 8-Inch Game ShearCustomer Review: Great Scissors!! Summary: 4 Stars
I've been a paramedic for 15 years, and these are close to being almost a 'must have' for every paramedic. They cut extremely well, almost too well. I wish Gerber would listen to me, because with a few tweaks, every Paramedic, EMT, and Firefighter would own these. Unfortunately they are so sharp at the tips, that they always end up cutting through the nylon sheath. I've had at least 10 pairs of these, I only buy new ones when I lose the old ones. I've owned earlier pairs, which had a harder nylon case, but the belt loop was too weak, and broke. Both designs are flawed. The scissors should also come with blunt tips. These are great for cutting through just about anything. Unfortunately that also means skin, so be careful if cutting off someones clothes. (Hence the tips need to be blunt, not sharp points.) In this configuration, they also make a decent weapon, if needed. If Gerber would a)make a better nylon sheath, with stronger belt loop, and a blunt tip, these would be perfect. I still love them and will take them in their current configuration, because they are sharp, they have never lost an edge, and they cut through anything. Even Chicken bones. Great Scissors!
