The Trauma Shears Emergency Professionals Trust
Folding rescue shears with five emergency tools in one device, developed with input from field professionals and built in Portland, Oregon.
- 420HC stainless steel folding shears with a micro-serrated edge
- Strap cutter, ring cutter, oxygen tank wrench and carbide glass breaker
- Folds to 12.7 cm and locks securely open for confident cuts
- 164 g with a replaceable pocket clip and lanyard hole
- Hard moulded holster included: MOLLE or Utility, by variant
- Nine colours, from duty Black and Woodland to Rainbow and Rose Gold
Built For The Moment Everything Speeds Up
SHEARS THAT COMMIT - The 420HC blades bite through clothing in firm, clean strokes, so you reach the patient instead of fighting the fabric.
LOCKED OPEN UNDER LOAD - Unfolded, the shears lock securely into place. Every cut lands with the confidence of a fixed pair of scissors.
A RULER ON THE BLADE - A 5 cm scale sits right on the shear blade for quick checks mid-task, with the tool already in your hand.
SHAPED BY THE PEOPLE WHO USE IT - Leatherman developed the Raptor Rescue with input from field professionals, refining every function against the demands of a real shift.
WHAT SETS THE RAPTOR RESCUE APART FROM ORDINARY SHEARS
A 25-Year Warranty
Leatherman stands behind the Raptor Rescue for 25 years. Buy it once and it is still covered decades into your career.
Made in Portland, Oregon
Built in Leatherman's own US factory from USA and global parts, the same plant that has made their multi-tools since 1983.
Five Tools, One Draw
The cutting, freeing, opening and breaking jobs of an emergency are all answered by a single device, so your kit carries one tool in place of four.
A Colour For Every Crew
Nine finishes cover everyone from tactical medics to paediatric nurses, so your pair is recognisably yours at shift change.
Four More Ways In When Seconds Matter
The strap cutter hooks under webbing and belts and slices outward, away from skin. The ring cutter slips beneath a band on a swelling finger and frees it in place.
The oxygen tank wrench rides with the shears, so a cylinder valve opens the moment you reach it. And when a window stands between you and a patient, the carbide glass breaker concentrates a strike to shatter it.
Folds Away, Rides Along
Folded, the Raptor Rescue is a 12.7 cm block that slides cleanly into a scrubs pocket or cargo pocket.
The replaceable pocket clip keeps it at the top edge of a pocket for a one-motion draw, and the lanyard hole tethers it to your kit so it comes home from every call.
Two Holsters, One Fast Draw
Every Raptor Rescue ships with a hard moulded holster that presents the shears handles-up, ready to draw and deploy in one motion.
The Black colourway comes with your choice of the MOLLE Holster, made for webbing-equipped packs and vests, or the Utility Holster for everyday belt carry. Coyote/Black pairs with the MOLLE Holster, and the other seven colours ship with the Utility Holster.
ONE PAIR OF SHEARS, FOUR SHIFTS
EMS & First Response
The whole extrication sequence, answered by the tool already on your rig when the call comes in.
Nurses & Vet Techs
Dressings trimmed, gowns opened, bandages sized on ward rounds or at the clinic table, then folded back into the pocket.
Safety & First-Aid Officers
One certified-response tool in the site kit that opens supplies, cuts to the injury and stands up to years of drills.
Outdoors & Fishing
Line, leader and heavy fabric cut clean in wet conditions, with stainless steel that shrugs off spray and rain.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What rings can the ring cutter handle?
The ring cutter is designed for soft metals such as gold and silver, which covers most wedding bands. Harder metals like stainless steel and titanium are beyond it, so those cases still go to the workshop cutter.
Can the shears be sharpened?
Yes. The straight cutting edge takes standard sharpening tools at a 32 degree inclusive angle, 16 degrees per side. The micro-serrated edge should only be dressed on the serrated side with a ceramic or diamond rod, leaving the flat side alone to preserve the serrations.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Wash with mild soap and water, dry fully, then run a light PTFE-based lubricant into the pivots whenever the action feels firm. Harsh solvents like acetone and brake cleaner can damage the overmoulded handles, so keep them away. The main pivot screw can also be tightened or loosened to tune the cut for the material you work with most.
