Mathieu-Olsen needle holder

A unique instrument, the MATHIEU-OLSEN model combines the functionality of a needle holder with that of a surgical scissors. In fact, the tip has a serrated end to facilitate a firm grip on the needle while the rest of the tip is sharp like surgical scissors. To further enhance the performance of the instrument, the tip of the needle holder is equipped with tungsten carbide inserts; it accommodates 3-0, 4-0 and 5-0 needles, and the total length of the instrument is 170 mm. The interior of the handle has a locking system that is designed to prevent the pinching and breaking of latex gloves.
