Swann Morton Carbon Steel Blades No. 11 | Box of 100

The Swann Morton No. 11 sterile surgical blade features an elongated triangular blade sharpened along the hypotenuse edge with a strong pointed tip. This surgical blade is ideal for stab incisions needed when lancing an abscess or inserting a chest drain.

It is held like a pencil and often upside down by the surgeon to prevent it inadvertently being inserted too deep. To avoid this scenario the scalpel should not be held towards the back end whilst the heel of the hand should be placed on the skin thus stabilising the hand to help prevent an unwanted deep incision.

This blade is also popular with podiatrists for surgical treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and lower extremities.

The Swann Morton 11 carbon steel blade can be honed to a very sharp edge, whilst being more wear resistant than stainless steel.

Safely remove the blade with a Swann Morton Blade Remover.
