Universal Knife Handle #3 Straight Vertical Adjustable Tip & Lock 6 1/2″

UNIVERSAL KNIFE HANDLE #3 STRAIGHT VERTICAL ADJUSTABLE TIP & LOCK 6 1/2″
When blade positioning needs to be adjusted rather than accepted in a fixed orientation, the D-117-578 offers a useful alternative. This universal #3 knife handle has a straight vertical adjustable tip and lock and measures 6 1/2 inches in length. The adjustable tip allows the blade position to be set according to the working approach, while the locking feature holds that selected position during use.
That combination is particularly relevant in clinical environments where different procedures, access angles, or operator preferences call for more adaptable knife handling. Instead of treating the handle as a passive connection between hand and blade, the D-117-578 provides a mechanism for setting the working orientation before the incision begins. It can therefore complement a carefully selected range of dermatology instruments used for skin and minor surgical procedures.
Why this configuration matters:
* Vertical adjustable tip: The tip arrangement allows the blade position to be adjusted in a vertical orientation for a more deliberate approach to the working site.
* Locking mechanism: Once positioned, the adjustable tip can be secured rather than left free to shift during handling.
* #3 universal pattern: The familiar #3 format makes the handle suitable for facilities maintaining compatible blades and standardized knife systems.
* 6 1/2-inch length: The stated length provides a useful balance between instrument reach and hand control for routine procedural work.
D-117-578 is a practical option when a fixed knife handle does not provide enough positioning flexibility. It belongs in instrument inventories where adaptable blade orientation is valued. Add it to your procedure set for controlled, adjustable knife handling.
