SS INSTRUMENTX Scalpel Handle No.3 BP Handle Fits Blades Numbers 6-16 (1 Count (Pack of 1) Silver)

Very good and exactly as described very solid no flimsy nonsense with these a really good for the price item for the smaller scalpel blades .

This scalpel handle is surprisingly good quality and fits the blades perfectly. Once it’s assembled, I instantly feel like I should be wearing gloves and saying dramatic things like “scalpel… clamp… coffee.” It’s solid, well-made and has that satisfying professional feel — the kind that makes you briefly consider a career in medicine until you remember you faint at paper cuts. The grip is comfortable and precise, and it works great for hobbies, airsoft teching, modelling or pretending you’re about to perform a life-saving operation on a gearbox. Blades snap on securely and don’t wobble, which is ideal because the last thing you want is a wobbly knife when you’re cutting tiny expensive parts or packaging you definitely didn’t need but bought anyway. For transparency: none of my stuff is gifted. I paid for everything myself, so this review is completely honest and unbiased. If you want a small tool that makes you feel way more qualified than you actually are, this is the one.

I’ve given this product 5 stars on account of the exceptional value. Positives: 1. Steel quality seems good. 2. Machining of the blade holder channels function perfectly 3. Three to a pack - exceptional value Negatives: 1. These are not as comfortable to hold as Swann-Morton blade holders. The edges of the handle are a little sharp and the general finish is definitely budget. (That said, I dressed all three holders with a rotary abrasive tool and rounded them off in 5 minutes) If you only use a scalpel occasionally these are great value, if you’re using them a lot, the S-M brand product will feel much better in the hand after reasonable use. All told, I have no real criticism of these. Perfect for chucking in the toolbox.

The handle is robust and includes a simple engraved ruler. The handle is reasonably balanced in use. My main gripe is that it is difficult to mount standard Swann Norton scapel blades - the fit is too tight such that I felt the blade would break given the force necessary - but it didn't. I'm not looking forward to changing that first blade!

Very good

Channel in the side of the blade holder is too narrow - blades will not slot into place need to be forced!! I could have posted a photo of today's half - installed blade covered in my blood, but that's just sour grapes. I should not have tried to fit a standard blade when the handle was clearly out-of-tolerance and the blade didn't snap into place at the first attempt. I have now managed to force the blade into place using a pair of point nosed pliers. I have owned many scalpel handles over the years (using them as craft knives) but this is simply the worst. Apart from the fact that the tolerances are wrong in the blade holder, this is a poorly finished handle with square -instead of rounded - edges. Like a piece of low cost cutlery, rather than the precision tool you expect with a scalpel. Having put a No.11 blade almost completely through my finger today I can definitely say "Do not buy this if you intend to install blades by hand"

Very good

Spot on. As advertised, very pleased with them.😀

Prodotto in linea con le aspettative

Prima kwaliteit.

Exactly what am looking for.

De nr 11 blades passen niet goed op de handle. Een tang is nodig om met kracht de blade op zijn plek te krijgen. Heb toch maar een Swann Morton besteld. Die werkt feilloos.
