Technical Specifications

Blunt/Blunt Tip Configuration

The distal end of each blade has a rounded blunt tip. This configuration supports controlled positioning around suitable procedural materials and helps reduce the risk of accidental puncturing or snagging associated with pointed scissors.

“Blunt/blunt” refers specifically to the shape of the two blade tips. It does not mean that the cutting edges are dull. The inner blade edges remain sharpened to perform the intended cutting action.

Straight Blade Design

The straight blade profile allows the cutting line to remain directly aligned with the handles. This configuration provides clear visibility and controlled access during routine operating-room, examination-room and clinical cutting tasks.

The 14.5cm length offers a practical balance between working reach and hand control, making the instrument suitable for general surgical trays and routine procedural use.
