Scalpel Handle angled #3XLA 35cm

Clinical Application

This angled long-handled scalpel provides surgeons with secure blade control for precise incisions in deep cavities, narrow operative corridors, or when an oblique blade orientation is required. Its extended 35 cm length is useful in procedures where standard-length handles cannot safely reach the target tissue, such as deep wound exploration, certain general and trauma exposures, or when working through retractors or ports where line-of-sight and reach are limited.

Design & Configuration

The angled shaft geometry positions the blade at an oblique approach relative to the handle, improving visibility of the cutting edge and facilitating controlled, ergonomic cutting strokes in confined spaces. The long-handled form allows the operator to maintain distance from the field while preserving tactile feel and precision. The #3 pattern blade mount follows the established #3 handle geometry, enabling stable seating of detachable scalpel blades and predictable blade orientation during use.
