This reusable surgical instrument lets you securely hold and manipulate disposable scalpel blades during surgical procedures. The unique concave/convex jaw prevents the blades from slipping, and the locking mechanism on the long handle secures the blade in place. The scissor-like handles give excellent control and leverage for the user. This scalpel handle may be sterilized with a chemical sterilant or by autoclaving. Be sure to clean, disinfect, and sterilize your surgical instruments promptly after each use to ensure a long life for your surgical tools. This scalpel handle is available in surgical grade stainless steel or our premium German steel.
