Amputation Knife 16cm blade

Clinical Application

Precision cutting of soft tissue during major and minor amputations, including creation and refinement of skin and muscle flaps. The long blade length facilitates smooth, continuous slicing motions for controlled tissue division in extremity amputations, trauma cases, and surgical debridement. Common users include orthopedic, vascular, and trauma surgeons as well as podiatric and surgical teams performing limb-sparing or ablative procedures.

Design & Configuration

A straight, single-edged geometry supports long, controlled slicing strokes that are preferred when developing flaps and dividing broad layers of soft tissue. The 16 cm blade length provides additional reach to access deeper tissue planes without repeated repositioning. The blade-to-handle configuration is intended to give the surgeon predictable cutting dynamics and tactile feedback during flap shaping and hemostatic dissection.
