Frequently asked questions
Is this chisel suitable for heavy bone removal?

What type of steel is used for this instrument?
This instrument is crafted from high-grade, professional-quality stainless steel. This material selection ensures:
- Exceptional durability in clinical settings.
- Resistance to wear during repeated surgical use.
- Compatibility with standard sterilization cycles.
Does the handle provide a secure grip?
Yes, the handle features a faceted, multi-sided cross-section. This ergonomic design is intentionally crafted to provide a secure, non-slip grip, allowing for greater control and stability during precise surgical applications.
Is the finish designed to reduce glare?

The instrument measures exactly 9-1/2 inches in total length. This length is optimized to provide a balance between leverage for heavy bone work and the reach required for orthopedic surgical procedures.
