Cyberforceps is a Transformer surgical tool. Unlike human forceps (tongs for grasping) a cyberforceps is a cutting tool.

A cyberforceps cuts metal by means of an energy discharge, apparently without generating smoke or heat. It is not known what distinguishes this from a laser scalpel; presumably the cutting mechanism used is preferable in some circumstances, though it may simply be an instance of Decepticon vs. Autobot technology.


Note: The source material is unclear whether a cyberforceps is plural, like a human forceps, or singular. This article assumes the term is singular because the tool is not a 2-part one. On the other hand, the singular of forceps is forcep.
