The Leatherman Raptor Rescue is a professional-grade trauma shear designed for rapid patient access in emergency situations. It combines folding trauma shears with integrated rescue tools in a compact, carry-ready design. Created by Leatherman in the US, the Raptor combines precision engineering and practical design to ensure that medics have all the tools they need to treat casualties quickly and efficiently.
