What is the specific working tip configuration?
The scissors feature a 1 probe tip configuration with a smooth working edge. This design is optimized for delicate cutting and probing within micro-surgical environments.

What is the total length of the instrument?
The Sklar Nagel Micro Scissors measure 8 inches in total length. This length, combined with the 45-degree angled shaft, provides the reach and leverage necessary for challenging micro-surgical applications.
