GDC Scalpel Solid Curved Handle 14.5cm (10-130-5AE)

Scalpel Handles are intended to be used with surgical blades for tissue separation and other procedures that require a sharp surgical blade to puncture or cut.
The scalpel Handle holds the scalpel blade, it is a small and extremely sharp instrument used for surgery and anatomical dissection.
Scalpel Handle Gripping:
Palmar Grip:
The handle is held with the second through fourth fingers and secured along the base of the hand thumb, with the help of the index finger extended along the top rear of the blade and the thumb along the side of the handle. This grip is best for initial incisions and larger cuts. This is also known as the dinner knife grip.
Pencil Grip:
The scalpel is held with the tips of the first and second fingers and the tip of the hand thumb with the handle resting on the fleshy base of the index finger and thumb. Care should be taken not to allow the handle to rest too far along with the index finger as this promotes an unstable grip.
