Easily remove cactus spines, rose thorns, or plant barbs with #5 watchmaker forceps. Fine tips provide precise first aid in outdoor settings.

Gardening, hiking, and outdoor work often lead to painful thorn or cactus spine injuries. Unlike standard tweezers, the #5 watchmaker forceps feature extremely fine tips that can grip slippery, barbed plant material with accuracy. Their precision minimizes breakage, ensuring thorns and spines are removed cleanly to prevent infection. Compact and durable, they are a must-have for gardeners, landscapers, hikers, and wilderness first aid kits.

These forceps/tweezers are made with AISI 420 German surgical grade stainless steel, not "alloy steel" recovered from rusted cars. We've been selling this grade of tool since 1998. See "Documentation" for the chemical analysis certificate.

Best Practices for Safe Thorn Removal

  • Wash the wound with soap and clean water first
  • Sterilize forceps with rubbing alcohol before use
  • Grip the thorn/spine as close to the skin as possible
  • Pull gently in the direction of entry to avoid tearing Disinfect afterward and cover if needed

Compliance & First Aid Relevance

Following basic outdoor and wilderness first aid guidelines, complete thorn or spine removal is critical for preventing infection. Including fine forceps in gardening toolkits, camping gear, and outdoor first aid packs supports both personal safety and occupational health practices.
