Controlled Access for Detail-Oriented Surgical Cutting

Potts-Smith scissors are 7-inch surgical scissors designed for controlled cutting and dissection, with a delicate profile that supports careful handling in focused operative work. Their 45º angled blades can help position the cutting edge where a straight instrument may be less convenient, while sharp tips support precise entry and separation. The ring handle provides a familiar grip for measured opening and closing during instrument handling. Suitable for workflows in General Surgery and Plastic Surgery, this configuration supports access-conscious technique when visibility, reach, and fine control matter. The design balances useful reach with a delicate feel for detail-oriented tasks.

Use Cases

• Cutting and dissecting during General Surgery procedures where an angled blade orientation supports access.
• Supporting detail-oriented cutting tasks in Plastic Surgery workflows.
• Using the 45º blade angle to position the cutting edge around or alongside structures when a straight approach is less convenient.
• Handling focused dissection work with sharp tips and a delicate instrument profile.
• Using the ring handle for controlled opening and closing during routine surgical instrument handling.

• Inspect the angled blades and sharp tips before use for alignment, damage, or compromised cutting surfaces.
• Handle the sharp tips carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to reduce the risk of accidental contact or instrument damage.
