Stitch Scissors
Stitch Scissors, also known as suture scissors, are lightweight, sharp-tipped surgical scissors designed for the precise task of cutting sutures. Their small, fine blades and often angled or hook-shaped lower blade allow the surgeon to safely slip under and snip sutures close to the knot without damaging the underlying skin or tissue. They are an essential, frequently used tool for wound closure in nearly every surgical discipline.
Key Features:
-
Fine, sharp blades, often with a hook or angled lower blade for safe suture capture.
-
Lightweight design for easy, one-handed operation during wound closure.
-
