Sklar Edge Sklarhone Super-Cut TC Metzenbaum-Lahey Dissecting Scissors - 5-3/4", Straight, Blunt/Blunt, 1 Razor Edge, 1 Micro-Serrated Edge - 16-3503

The permanently bonded tungsten carbide (TC) inserts are a critical upgrade. They provide significantly extended sharpness retention compared to standard stainless steel scissors, ensuring you maintain precise cutting performance over a much longer product lifespan.

These scissors combine two distinct cutting styles for maximum versatility: - Razor Edge: Provides a clean, knife-like cut for delicate tissues. - Micro-Serrated Edge: Helps grip tissue securely, preventing slipping and ensuring a precise cut on heavier tissue without unwanted pulling or tearing.

These are precision tools specifically engineered for tissue dissection. Please note they are strictly intended for dissecting and cutting soft tissue and are not recommended for use on sutures or drains, which can dull the specialized blades.

This model features a distinct, high-contrast handle design to prevent mix-ups in the operating room. You can instantly identify them by the one gold finger ring and one black finger ring configuration.

Absolutely. These scissors are manufactured to the Sklar Premium Grade standard using high-quality stainless steel and tungsten carbide. They are designed as reusable instruments and are backed by a manufacturer’s Lifetime Warranty, reflecting their build quality.

While they maintain the classic Metzenbaum-Lahey style suited for dissection, the ‘Sklarhone Super-Cut’ enhancement makes them more specialized. They are designed to be shorter (5-3/4 inches) and include the high-performance TC inserts, offering a significant upgrade in edge retention and cutting precision compared to standard, non-TC models.

Yes. This product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it suitable for use in facilities that require latex-free equipment.

The blunt/blunt (B/B) tip configuration is a standard, safe choice for blunt dissection procedures. It allows for safe tissue separation while minimizing the risk of accidental puncture or damage to underlying structures.

These scissors are delivered non-sterile. As professional-grade, reusable surgical instruments, they must be processed and sterilized according to your facility’s protocols before their first use.

The TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance confirms that these instruments meet specific manufacturing origin requirements, making them eligible for purchase by government agencies and institutions that require adherence to these procurement standards.
