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.
This is also known as the dinner knife grip. This grip is best for initial incisions and larger cuts. The handle is held with the second through fourth fingers and secured along the base of the hand thumb, with the help of index finger extended along the top rear of the blade and the thumb along the side of the handle. Blades are manufactured with a corresponding fitment size so that they fit on only one size handle. The #7 handle is more like a long writing pen, rounded at the front and flat at the back. The #5 handle is round shaped with smooth gripping. The flat handle is used in #3 and #4 handles. There are two most commonly used scalpel handles are flat & round handles. We at HARFINS manufacture the medical scalpels in various sizes and designs. The reusable scalpel blades are usually individually packed in sterile pouches but are also offered non-sterile. In medical applications, each scalpel blade must only be use once. The groove at the tip of scalpel handle allows to fit in and hold the scalpel blades.
These surgical scalpel handles are manufactured as a single unit instrument. We at HARFINS only offer reusable scalpel handles made of high quality surgical stainless steel. Reusable scalpels are made of stainless steel or titanium materials. These are single use devices, and the entire instrument must be discarded after use. Single use or disposable scalpels usually have a plastic handle with an extensible blade.
