Liston Amputation Knife 20cm blade

Clinical Application

Designed for use in major limb amputation procedures, this instrument provides a long cutting profile intended for smooth, continuous incisions through skin and deep soft tissues. It is used by general, vascular and orthopedic surgeons when controlled, single-stroke cuts are preferred—for example during guillotine or definitive amputations and when creating flaps. The extended blade length helps maintain an even plane of dissection and reduces the need for multiple short passes.

Design & Configuration

The straight 20 cm blade provides reach and a long cutting arc for efficient soft-tissue division. A single cutting edge allows predictable, low‑resistance slicing which aids in producing clean tissue margins and improving surgeon control during long strokes. The blade geometry is optimized to facilitate planar dissection around a limb circumference while minimizing repeated repositioning.
