Tyler’s Tools of the Trade: Surgical Knives Edition
Ever wonder what kinds of blades are used in the OR?
We don’t just use one knife—we use several, each for a specific purpose. From big incisions to delicate dissection, every blade has a job.
Check out the difference between a 10-blade, an 11-blade, a 15, and even the micro-level beaver blade.
These are the tools that help us operate with precision and protect what matters most: your tissue, tendons, and outcomes.
