Blade for Humby Skin Grafting Knife

Clinical Application

Used to harvest split-thickness skin grafts, this replacement blade is intended for procedures in plastic and reconstructive surgery, burn wound management, and dermatologic grafting. When mounted in the Humby handle, the blade enables controlled, tangential slicing of donor skin to produce uniform grafts for coverage of wound beds or reconstructive defects. Surgeons rely on the blade geometry to control graft thickness and to minimize donor-site trauma.

Design & Configuration

The blade's curved profile facilitates long, continuous strokes along donor sites, allowing the cutting edge to engage the skin at a consistent angle. The curvature helps maintain an even cutting plane and assists the operator in controlling graft thickness and width during harvesting. As a replacement blade for a clamp-style Humby handle, it permits rapid exchange so a fresh, sharp edge is available for each case or donor site.

Instrument Specifications

• Replacement blade compatible with Humby-style skin grafting handles
• Curved cutting edge optimized for split-thickness graft harvest
• Precision-ground edge for controlled tissue shear
• Intended for use in plastic/reconstructive, burn, and dermatologic grafting procedures
• Reusable and suitable for standard sterile processing

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel with a precision-ground cutting surface to provide a sharp, durable edge. The blade is finished for corrosion resistance and is intended for reuse with appropriate sterile processing. Handle mounting surfaces are machined to seat securely in Humby-type clamp handles to maintain blade alignment during harvesting.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
