Ring Scissors
There are many different varieties of surgical scissors. Some have blunt tips while
others have sharp pointed ends. Surgical scissors have either straight or curved blades.
Curved blades make some cutting requirements easier to perform. Other types of
surgical scissors, like the Mayo scissors, have short cutting blades that are intended for
cutting through thick or hard tissue. In contrast, Metzenbaum scissors have extremely
long blades for cutting in and around tissue that is more delicate.
Gold handle is an indication the scissors have a tungsten carbide insert, making the
cutting surface stronger and more resistant.
Black handle indicates a serrated blade. The serration prevents slippage of the
blades and makes a cleaner cut. Also, it can be more easily used left-handed.
A combination of gold and black handles indicates one tungsten insert blade and
one serrated blade.
