Description

Sklar's Liston Bone Cutting Forceps are double spring, single action forceps that feature forward or backward angled blades and are commonly used for cutting small bones. For work on larger bones, one might use the Liston-Stille Bone Cutting Forceps, which have a similar blade; however, utilize a double action mechanism for greater ability to cut large bones. This product is sharp, straight and measures 5-1/2 inches overall.
