Stingblade, a novel product, offers a promising solution for one of the most common problems encountered in marine recreation—jellyfish stings. This innovative tool is designed to safely scrape off jellyfish micro barbs from the skin without activating them, thus preventing further stinging and swiftly alleviating pain. Stingblade is available in two versions to cater to different needs: the Personal model for immediate use in water, and the Professional model which offers a more extensive range of treatment options once back on shore.
The creation of Stingblade was driven by the personal experiences of Mark Dyer, a descendant of a long line of blade craftsmen. His venture into the development of this product was sparked by a painful encounter with jellyfish in 2018, which left him searching for an effective solution to manage the stings. The incident not only inspired the product but also fueled Dyer's dedication to enhancing the safety and well-being of ocean enthusiasts and professionals alike.
Beyond its practical utility, Stingblade is a reflection of Dyer's ongoing commitment to raising awareness about the risks of jellyfish stings and providing a straightforward, accessible remedy. By introducing this tool, Dyer aims to equip swimmers, divers, and maritime workers with a means to protect themselves against one of the hazards of marine environments.
