Description

Sklar Edge TC Supercut Sklarhone Iris scissors provide effortless, precise cutting. These scissors feature one knife-like razor edge and one micro-serrated edge along with the strength and durability of tungsten carbide. They can be used to cut both delicate and heavy tissue with minimal tearing or pulling. Sklar permanently bonds tungsten carbide inserts to the blades of the scissors which maximizes control and precision. These scissors are also designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than standard scissors. Originally designed for ophthalmic procedures, Iris Scissors have become a multipurpose instrument used in various surgical environments. These fine, sharp scissors are ideal for detailed dissection of fine tissue and fine suture removal. In addition to ophthalmic procedures, Iris Scissors are now often used in emergency rooms and for OB/GYN and dermatologic procedures. This product is curved with one razor edge blade, one micro-serrated edge blade, sharp tips, and an overall length of 4-1/2 inches.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors durable enough for frequent use?

Yes, these are built for longevity. They feature permanently bonded tungsten carbide inserts on the blades, which provide superior strength and significantly prolonged sharpness retention compared to standard stainless steel instruments.

Can these scissors handle both delicate and heavy tissues?

Absolutely. The unique hybrid blade configuration is designed specifically for this versatility:

One razor-like edge: Ensures clean, smooth cuts.
One micro-serrated edge: Provides grip and stability.
This combination minimizes tearing or pulling, whether you are working with delicate membranes or tougher tissue.

What is the benefit of the gold and black handles?

The dual-tone handle design serves as a distinct visual marker. The gold ring helps clinicians immediately identify the instrument as a SuperCut TC model, distinguishing it quickly from standard surgical scissors on a crowded instrument tray.

Are these scissors suitable for detailed suture removal?

Yes, their design makes them excellent for fine work. Originally engineered for precision-demanding ophthalmic procedures, these scissors offer:

High-precision sharp/sharp tips: Ideal for intricate dissection.
Curved-on-flat geometry: Allows for better access and visibility in tight spaces.

Is the material safe for patients with sensitivities?

Yes, these instruments are manufactured without natural rubber latex, making them safe for use in clinical environments where latex sensitivity is a concern.

Does the instrument require special sterilization before use?

Yes, these scissors are shipped non-sterile. As with all reusable surgical-grade stainless steel instruments, they must be properly cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized according to your facility’s established protocols before their first use.

Are these scissors appropriate for emergency or OB/GYN settings?

While originally designed for ophthalmology, their reliability has made them a standard choice across many surgical specialties, including:

Emergency rooms
OB/GYN
Dermatologic procedures
Their versatility in cutting various tissue types makes them a valuable addition to many specialty kits.

Is the sharpness retained better than standard steel scissors?

Yes. The Tungsten Carbide inserts are specifically chosen because they hold a sharp edge much longer than standard stainless steel blades. This reduces the frequency of sharpening and maintains cutting performance throughout the instrument’s lifespan.
