What is the difference between sharp blunt and blunt blunt operating scissors straight?

Sharp/blunt straight operating scissors cut through tissue with the sharp blade while the blunt tip protects the layer beneath; blunt/blunt scissors are used where both tips must remain atraumatic throughout the stroke, such as suture cutting or blunt dissection.

Why are straight operating scissors used instead of curved in general surgery?

Straight blade geometry provides more mechanical advantage for cutting thick or tough tissue on accessible flat surfaces, making them the standard choice for fascial incision and superficial tissue cutting in open general surgery.

Can these working scissors be used for suture cutting as well as tissue incision?

Yes: the sharp/blunt configuration handles tissue cutting and suture work in the same instrument; the blunt/blunt variant is the dedicated choice where only suture material or gauze needs to be cut without tissue contact.

Do you offer bulk supply for distributors?

Yes, Hamsan Surgical specializes in bulk manufacturing and global supply for distributors and healthcare facilities.

Description

Operating Scissors Straight: Sharp/Blunt, Sharp/Sharp and Blunt/Blunt for General Surgery

Straight blade geometry gives the surgeon more mechanical advantage over thick tissue than curved, a selection principle consistent with standard operating room scissors technique for fascial and subcutaneous incision. The sharp/blunt tip configuration serves a specific role: the sharp blade drives the cut while the blunt tip contacts, not penetrates, the tissue layer beneath.
