The 8" Length, 1" (25 mm) Blade Smith-Petersen Osteotome is a precision surgical tool used in orthopedic and reconstructive treatments for controlled bone cutting and reshaping. Accessing difficult anatomical regions is made easier by this model's 8-inch (around 20.3 cm) overall length and straight 1-inch (25 mm) wide blade. Because it is made of premium German surgical stainless steel, it is long-lasting, resistant to corrosion, and compatible with common sterilizing procedures.
