Power tool assembly and associated method of use in rescue situations

摘要

A rescue working tool is provided with a luminescent layer on exposed portions of the tool, and preferably over the entirety of the working tool. In a specific embodiment, the working tool is a rescue saw used to cut through debris and mangled structure at a vehicle crash or building collapse site. The luminescent layer can be fluorescent, but is preferably phosphorescent so that the layer emits light when the tool is used in low light or darkness.
