Description

Sklar's Richardson-Eastman Double-Ended Retractor is a handheld, right angle retractor used for holding back layers of tissue close to the surface. The concave blades are different sizes and both feature a crescent shaped lip. Often the smaller blade will be used for an initial retraction, then the larger blade will be inserted for full retraction. This product is considered the small Richardson-Eastman retractor. It has a long blade that measures 1-1/4" x 1-1/8" and a short blade that measures 1" x 7/8". The handle has a small barrel with ridges in the center of the spine for improved thumb or finger grip.
