Operating Scissors B-52 to B-55 – Curved Sharp/Blunt
The B Martin Operating Scissors B-52 to B-55 are curved-pattern scissors with a sharp/blunt tip, offered in four lengths from 14 cm to 19 cm. The most widely used configuration in general surgery — the curved blade provides ergonomic access and visibility while the blunt lower tip protects underlying structures during tissue division.
Curved sharp/blunt operating scissors are arguably the single most-used scissors configuration in general surgery. The curved blade follows tissue contours naturally and keeps the blade tips visible to the surgeon throughout the cutting stroke. The sharp upper blade provides clean cutting action; the blunt lower blade slides safely under tissue, protecting blood vessels, nerves, and hollow organs from inadvertent injury. This combination of curved geometry and S/B safety is the reason this pattern is found on virtually every general surgery OT tray worldwide. B Martin offers this configuration in four lengths — 14 cm, 15.5 cm, 17 cm, and 19 cm — in surgical-grade stainless steel, satin-finished and individually tested.
