The Lancet Knife 6 ½” 2mm x 3mm Tip, Angled 45° is a precision surgical instrument designed for controlled incision, access, and delicate tissue manipulation. Its 45-degree angled configuration provides an alternative working orientation that can be useful when direct access to the surgical site is limited.
The instrument features a defined 2mm x 3mm tip designed to provide a controlled working profile. The compact tip allows the user to approach the intended area with precision while maintaining careful control over the instrument. The 45° angle helps position the working end according to the requirements of the procedure and may improve access in confined or difficult-to-reach surgical areas.
With an overall length of 6 ½ inches, the Lancet Knife provides a useful combination of reach and maneuverability. The length allows the instrument to be held securely while the angled working end is carefully positioned. This makes the instrument suitable for specialized surgical and procedure-specific instrument sets where controlled incision and precise access are important.
The angled configuration is one of the key functional characteristics of this lancet knife. By placing the tip at a 45° angle, the instrument can provide a more suitable approach to certain anatomical areas than a straight configuration. The design can support controlled movements while helping the user maintain awareness of the working tip throughout the procedure.
The Lancet Knife may be incorporated into ENT, otologic, microsurgical, or other specialized surgical instrument sets depending on the specific design and intended application. Its exact clinical use should be determined by qualified healthcare professionals according to the procedure, surgical technique, and patient anatomy.
This type of surgical knife is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion when properly maintained. The precision-finished working end is designed for professional surgical use, while the rigid shaft helps maintain controlled positioning during manipulation.
For reusable versions, the instrument should be cleaned, inspected, and sterilized according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s established reprocessing protocol. The tip and angled working end should be carefully inspected before use for damage, deformation, or other defects that could affect performance. Proper handling and storage also help preserve the condition of the instrument.
The Lancet Knife 6 ½” 2mm x 3mm Tip, Angled 45° provides a practical combination of a compact working tip, angled access, and extended instrument length. Its precision-oriented design makes it a useful addition to professional surgical instrument collections requiring controlled incision and access.
