"Gerber's 'Hinderer' Rescue knife is a cut above the rest. Travis Kidd, Fire Rescue Magazine, June 2006"
"I used the cutter on an actual patient... The size of the cutter allowed me to cut the patient's shirt without any part of the knife coming in contact with the injured shoulder, making it a good alternative to trauma sheers. Travis Kidd, Fire Rescue Magazine, June 2006"
