Knives

CATEGORY DESCRIPTION
Disposable Disposable scalpels are offered in a variety of sizes and styles. Safety scalpels retract to avoid accidental injury.
Miscellaneous Knives Fine, reusable dissecting knife with 45 degree angle.
Sapphire Diamond knife quality at a fraction of the price. The sapphire knife is a precision cutting instrument for use in ophthalmic, neurologic and plastic surgery research procedures. It provides a superb cut far exceeding that of a finely honed steel knife. Under magnification of the optical microscope, even the best steel blade appears saw-toothed with metal flakes loosely attached to the cutting edge. Such a blade will produce a rough cut and damage to tissue. In contrast, the blades of WPI's sapphire knife can be polished to a far greater smoothness (less than 0.05 µm RMS). An incision made by a sapphire knife results in significantly less damage than a conventional steel knife and no metal particles are left behind in the tissue, so wounds heal faster with less scaring.
Scalpel Blades Sterile, stainless steel scalpel blades are available in all common sizes and will work on standard scalpel handles.
Scalpel Handles Use stainless steel scalpel handles along with the disposable scalpel blades for economical general procedures.
