Fomon Surgical Scissors Straight 13.7 cm (5.4) TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Handling for General Surgical Cutting Tasks

Fomon dorsal scissors are 5 3/8-inch surgical scissors designed for general surgery cutting tasks. Their angled shanks can support access and hand positioning when a direct instrument line is less convenient, while the straight tungsten carbide blades provide a defined cutting profile. A serrated bottom blade helps maintain purchase on material during handling, and blunt tips support work where a non-sharp tip configuration is preferred. The gold ring handle provides a recognizable grip point for controlled manipulation. Together, these features offer a practical balance of reach, handling, and cutting control within routine surgical workflows.

Use Cases

• Perform general surgical cutting tasks requiring a 5 3/8-inch scissors format.
• Use the angled shanks to support access and hand positioning in confined or offset working areas.
• Apply the straight tungsten carbide blades to routine cutting work requiring a durable cutting-edge material.
• Use the serrated bottom blade when additional purchase on material is useful during handling.
• Select the blunt-tip configuration for tasks where sharp tips are not preferred.
