Description

Equate Stainless Steel Bandage Scissors are perfectly designed to help you safely remove bandages without risking further injury. Regular scissors have sharp tips that can cause harm when trying to get between a bandage and the skin below. The easy-to-control angled blade is designed to lift bandages gently away from the skin and reduce the risk of injury. These scissors were thoughtfully crafted with blunt tip sides that slide gently under bandages and keep the skin underneath safe. Equate Stainless Steel Bandage Scissors are a great addition to any first aid kit.
