    1. Im assuming they are medical related somehow? So probably meant to be tossed out after cutting bandages or whatever else.

      As a nurse I’ve taken dozens of single use scissors home after opening them and using them once to cut a sterile dressing. If they haven’t been used to debride a wound then they’re free game! Very good sewing kit scissors.

    3. Went to emergency recently for stitches. When they were done I took the scissors and hemostats. When the doc asked what I was doing I said “you’re just going to dispose of them in a sharps bin. I paid for them and I’m taking them.” Doc said he couldn’t argue with that.

      Was given those to remove my own stitches with instructions to so in 2 weeks time. Was surprisingly painless and easy.

      Pretty much anything opened in a hospital room is fair game to take if it isn’t used on the patient.
      Nurses usually tell me to take it all home.

    7. Judging by the loss of paint on the handle of those medical scissors they were stolen from a hospital and have been being used for years…real funny stuff

    8. Naah, it’s not for “one time only”, it’s for using with single hand, not two hands.

      That’s so wasteful! It doesn’t mean throw them away, it means only use them if you aren’t in a relationship. SMH.

      He didn’t follow the instructions—CLEARLY those have been used before.
      *Tsk tsk tsk*

      Yes these are medical scissors.

      We had a pair from when my son was born. As cheap as they look they were amazingly sharp, and could cut almost anything.
