Standard Operating Scissor 18 cm Sharp/Blunt Curved TC Gold

The Standard Operating Scissor 18 cm sharp/blunt, Curved TC Gold is the most versatile configuration in the long operating scissor range. One tip is pointed and will enter tissue to begin a cut precisely. The other is rounded and can be passed beneath a layer without puncturing it. In practice this means a single instrument performs both the incising and the protected undercutting that would otherwise require two scissors, and the veterinary surgeon simply rotates it to present the appropriate tip.

18 cm length gives reach at depth with the hand clear of the field. Tungsten carbide inserts hold the edge through repeated use and sterilisation. For a practice buying one long operating scissor in carbide, this configuration is generally the sensible choice.

• One pointed tip for precise entry and one rounded tip for protection
• Performs both incising and safe undercutting with one instrument
• Rotated in the hand to present the appropriate tip
• 18 cm length gives reach at depth with the hand clear
• Tungsten carbide inserts hold the edge through repeated sterilisation
• Generally the sensible choice where one long carbide scissor is bought
