Am I the only paramedic/nurse who's never heard them called "tuff cuts" before reading this article?

Well, that's hard to say. I'd only heard them called Tuf Cuts, never trauma shears. OwainDavies ^(about)_(talk) edited at 08:46, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Where were you expecting? OwainDavies ^(about)_(talk) edited at 06:57, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Standar issue in an emergency tech's trauma bag in my area. Great for cutting just about anything, including up to 3 layers of denim at a time (but it takes a bit of strength). Can't personally admit to it (for legal reasons and all) but a standard set of trauma shears will cut through a US penny. --Nouniquenames 01:02, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
