Why ONE SHEAR® for EDC

DLC Scratch Resistance

9/10 Mohs Diamond-Like Carbon coating survives daily pocket carry. Won't scratch, won't corrode, won't look beat-up after six months of everyday use.

Built-In O₂ Wrench

More than a shear — integrated O₂ wrench adds real emergency utility to your carry without adding a second tool to your loadout.

MINI for Tight Carry

The ONE SHEAR® MINI is designed for front pocket, IFAK pouch, or bag clip carry. Full DLC performance in a compact package built for daily life.

Why EDC Carriers Choose ONE SHEAR®

  • Daily pocket carry durability — DLC handles daily pocket friction, keys, and grit without dulling or corroding like standard shears after 60 days of carry.

  • The go-to gift for the prepared person — ONE SHEAR® is the top gift for first responders, medical professionals, and anyone who takes preparedness seriously.

EDC Carriers Ask Us

Will the DLC hold up in daily pocket carry?

Yes. DLC at 9/10 Mohs is harder than titanium and won't scratch, pit, or corrode from daily pocket carry, keys, or grit exposure. It maintains appearance and edge long-term.

What's the best ONE SHEAR® for EDC?

The MINI is built specifically for compact everyday carry — same DLC coating and 5-year warranty as the full-size, in a tighter package that fits front pockets and IFAK pouches.

Why carry a trauma shear instead of a knife?

A trauma shear is designed to cut clothing and webbing fast without risk of cutting the person underneath — critical in vehicle accidents or medical emergencies where a knife creates additional risk.

Does it work for vehicle seatbelt cutting?

Yes. ONE SHEAR® cuts through automotive seatbelts, harnesses, and clothing in a single controlled motion. One of the primary use cases the blade geometry is built for.

Carry What Actually Works When It Matters

DLC-coated. Built-in O₂ wrench. 5-year warranty. Made for the prepared carry.
