For controlled bone cutting and contouring in orthopedic and reconstructive surgeries, the Smith-Petersen Osteotome – 8" Curved, 1/2" (13 mm) Blade is a precision surgical tool. Accessing difficult anatomical regions is made easier by this model's 8-inch (around 20.3 cm) overall length and curved 1/2-inch (13 mm) wide blade. Because it is made of premium German surgical stainless steel, it is long-lasting, resistant to corrosion, and compatible with most sterilizing procedures.
