How Does It Compare with Other No. 3 Handle Blades?
| Blade | Shape as described | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Size 12 (EL-DE-6802) | Small hooked blade, edge on the inner curve | Short pulling cuts, opening narrow structures |
| Scalpel Blade 10 | Long curved cutting edge | Longer general cuts |
| Scalpel Blade 11 | Pointed | Fine punctures and precise straight cuts |
| Scalpel Blade 15 | Small curved edge | Short, careful cuts on small specimens |
All four fit the No. 3 handle, so a lab can keep one handle per student and change the blade to suit the task; choose size 12 when the cut has to be pulled towards you along a hooked edge.
What Is the No. 12 Scalpel Blade Used For?
Because its cutting edge lies on the inside of the hook, a No. 12 blade cuts as it is drawn back, which gives good control when opening a narrow tube or vessel, slitting a thin membrane from beneath or cutting a thread without pressing into the tissue below. In college zoology and botany practicals it complements the straight and curved blades in a dissection kit, and it is useful in university teaching labs that work on smaller preserved specimens.
Fit and remove the blade with forceps or a blade remover rather than fingers, open the foil only when the blade is needed, and treat each blade as single-use: once it is blunt, put it into a sharps container rather than a waste bin.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 blades; schools often order several sizes together.
- Handle — this blade fits a No. 3 handle; add Scalpel Handle Size 3 if you do not already have them.
- Other sizes — sizes 10, 11 and 15 fit the same handle and can go on the same enquiry.
