When operating in the field, speed and stealth are essential to survival.  RIPSHEARS RS-2B maintains a low profile with our line of high-quality 420J surgical stainless steel shears bonded with a black Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) coating and tactical black. Ideal for those operating in urban, maritime, or other austere environments.

RIPSHEARS will easily slice through multiple layers of clothing, denim, leather, neoprene wetsuits, chemical biological and radiological suits (CBRN), bandages, sports wraps, plastic packaging, seat belts and much more! RS-2 RIPPER features an integrated O2 wrench and our proprietary, user-replaceable DLC-coated 440A stainless steel razor blades and stainless steel screws/sleeves.

Instructions:

Step 1:  Pick your line.  When possible, pick a line that avoids pockets, zippers, velcro, etc.

Step 2:  Always make a pilot cut. Use the shear portion to get through the first seam, collar, belts, straps, etc.  Our product will be more effective if you stick to this principle while working on patients. 

Step 3:  Insert your Ripper into the pilot cut while supporting the fabric just above.  When ready, pull briskly.  If you hit any snags quickly reset your off hand just above the shear and reset the hook.
