Sklar Littauer Suture Scissors, Delicate
A delicate, fine tipped scissors used for cutting sutures cleanly and precisely in surgical and outpatient wound care settings.
The Sklar Littauer Suture Scissors, also known as the Spencer stitch scissors, is a small precision scissors used specifically for cutting suture material rather than tissue. Its narrow, pointed blades let the clinician slip under a stitch and sever it close to the knot without disturbing surrounding tissue or catching skin, which makes it a common instrument for suture removal in clinics, wards and minor procedure rooms as well as for trimming sutures intraoperatively.
Surgeons, nurses and general practitioners use this pattern routinely because the fine tip gives good visibility and control in a small working area. The delicate profile offered in this listing further refines the tip for use on fine sutures or in more sensitive anatomical areas where a standard blade would be too coarse.
It measures 5-1/2 inches overall, a length that balances hand control with reach. Being a stainless surgical instrument, it is designed for reprocessing and repeated use as part of a standard suture removal or minor surgery kit.
