A Microsurgical Knife is a disposable surgical instrument used in microsurgery on very small structures, often under a microscope. Microsurgical knives have an extremely fine and sharp blade, allowing for precise and controlled incisions in delicate tissues. These knives have a straight blade that is super thin and narrow, allowing you to make precise cuts with minimal damage to surrounding tissues. These disposable blades are often used for ophthalmic surgery, neurosurgery, vascular surgery, reconstructive surgery, plastic surgery, and microdissection. Our disposable Microsurgical Knives have a knurled plastic handle that makes the knives lightweight and offers a secure hold. They are 13.5 cm (5.25") long and have a 15º angle on the blade. They are not autoclavable. They are individually wrapped and sold in packages of 6. These are designed as disposable surgical knives. Choose from a 3 mm, 5 mm, or 5.7 mm blade length.
