Description

Sklarhone Metzenbaum-Lahey Dissecting Scissors are used for dissecting and cutting tissue only. These scissors are not recommended for cutting sutures or drains. Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors tend to be shorter than traditional Metzenbaum scissors. Sklarhone scissors feature one knife-like razor sharp edge and one standard scissor edge. This allows the user to make the sharp incisions of a knife with the cutting ability of scissors. Catching skin and pulls are minimized by the use of Sklarhone premium scissors. Sklarhone instruments are identified by dual black finger rings. This product is curved, has one razor edge blade, blunt tips, and an overall length of 5-3/4 inches.

Frequently asked questions

Does this tool help prevent tissue pulling?

Yes, these scissors are specifically engineered to minimize tissue drag. The unique hybrid blade configuration—one razor-sharp edge paired with a standard scissor edge—allows for smooth, clean incisions that reduce the likelihood of catching or pulling delicate tissue during dissection.
