Glass Knife Kit

Features

• Independent Operation: The glass knife and drill work independently, allowing for use in any position. This flexibility makes the Glass Knife a valuable and economical tool for responders.
• Reduced Risks: By design, 80% of debris is ejected outside the vehicle compared to a reciprocating saw. This greatly reduces the risk for both the patient and the rescuer.
• Unique Swiveling Capabilities: The Glass Knife maintains a comfortable position for the operator while allowing for easy maneuvering to perform tight-corner cuts with constant control and little effort. Customers have found the ability to articulate the drill and the head priceless when maneuvering around corners, bent steel, or A-Posts.
• Hardened Steel Blades: Effective and durable, the Glass Knife blade’s smooth cutting edge is made of hardened, ground, and polished steel. The interference fit design ensures that dust and chips do not fall between the blades, preventing wear and tear.
