Advantages

The stainless steel blade ensures durable sharpness and resistance to rust, while the plastic handle provides a comfortable, lightweight grip that improves control during extended use. The 142 mm blade length gives a longer cutting reach than shorter blades, making it easier to perform straight cuts and access deeper work areas.

How to use

Hold the scalpel by the plastic handle with a stable grip and align the blade with the cutting line. Use controlled, deliberate strokes, applying consistent pressure to achieve a clean cut; avoid forcing the blade through thick or hard materials. For long straight cuts, use a ruler or straightedge as a guide. Replace the blade if it becomes dull or nicked to maintain cutting quality and reduce the risk of slips.

Recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when necessary. Store the scalpel with a protective cover or in a closed box away from children. Clean the blade after use and dry thoroughly to prevent residue buildup; if the blade is damaged, replace it rather than attempting to sharpen.
