ONE SHEAR® Reviews

I own multiple shears because I have multiple setups. Whether it's for duty, a trauma go-bag, home use, or dedicated plate carrier; I trust One Shear to deliver and they do 100% of the time. The safety yellow OS Pro is the most recent purchase and I love the color for high visibility. The build quality of the shears are always top notch and having the peace of mind to know that it will cut what I need is one of the best qualities of these shears. I'm personally still waiting on a "Special Ed...

Any trauma professional knows that quick, efficient, deployable access to your primary tool of choice is a must. One Shear's Kydex closed retention system does just that. It not only serves as a secure means to keep your shears on person, but also appropriately protects it for longevity and minimizes damage. The fit and build of their holster is of highest caliber with multiple attachment options appropriate for any type of situation. in comparison to the Raptor holster, the OS holster is ac...

The One Shear BUS came in a simple plastic bag and looked -at first sight- no very different from my old trauma shears. But then I made the cutting test with some strong jute and hemp ropes I use for Shibari/Kinbaku. WOW!! They cut through rope with absolute ease and far more effective than my old ones. Comparing them with my old shears there are a few significant differences: - The OS center bold is much stronger. - The OS cutting edges are sharpened AFTER the coating, which adds precision and ...

Coming from the Ghost Pro I expected nothing less of OS's proven cutting power and ergos. The V2 doesn't disappoint. I use it as my back up shears when the Pros are being oiled. I can't say enough that I am happy to find trauma shears that do NOT have any hot spots. It's not just the type of material that needs to be cut, but also the speed and pace that requires me to get clothing out of the way in emergencies. If you are on the fence about these, it's a tool made for a single purpose: ge...

I've had the Ghost Pros before and had nothing but praise for them. Everything I mentioned prior continues on for the Mini version. It is the Glock 43 of trauma shears; dependable yet versatile in more situations due to its size. Glow aside, my favorite aspect of these shears are its tried and true G9 Nylon gas-filled handles because they have zero hotspots under quick pressured cuts against tough resistant material. The blade thickness ensures minimal to zero flex while cutting and makes fo...

I work in the ER and have been using the Leatherman Raptor shears for the longest time. I respect their cutting power but I found the steel to corrode over time. They were also a nightmare to clean due to their folding and excessive features. After searching I finally came across the Ghost Pro and so far it has been a dream to use. The quality of the steel with the DLC coating have made for a highly valued cutting companion especially through various traumas and because of its non-gimmick st...

These are very good shears. They cut more effectively than my Raptor shears; other brands like ADC and cheaper units can't compare in quality or efficiency. They are heavier than a standard full size shear, but not to the point of being annoying while hanging from the loop inside the cargo pocket of my scrub pants. I work in an ED and have used them to cut away jeans, belts, sweatshirts, splint material, packaging, and other bulky items that would've wrecked cheaper shears immediately. I appreci...
