The straight bite tip configuration is engineered for:
- Accurate bone tissue excision.
- Precise access in deep-tissue applications.

Why is one of the finger rings finished in gold?
The gold-tone finish on one of the finger rings serves as a functional visual indicator. This contrast helps the surgeon easily distinguish the handles during operation, improving efficiency and confidence during surgery.
