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

UNIVERSAL KNIFE HANDLE #3 HORIZONTAL ADJUSTABLE TIP & LOCK 6 1/2″
The D-117-5781 takes a different approach to adjustable knife handling. It is a universal #3 knife handle with a horizontal adjustable tip and lock, measuring 6 1/2 inches. Rather than fixing the blade at one permanent orientation, the mechanism allows the working position to be adjusted and then secured. That can be useful when the direction of the blade needs to correspond closely with the clinician’s hand position and access to the treatment site.
For dermatologic and minor surgical work, instrument geometry can influence how comfortably and deliberately a blade is brought to the skin. The horizontal configuration of this handle provides another positioning option within a facility’s knife inventory, especially where clinicians work across procedures that require different approaches. It can be used alongside other dermatology instruments when a procedure set benefits from interchangeable, adjustable knife handles.
Practical features include:
* Horizontal adjustable tip: The working end can be positioned horizontally to suit the desired blade orientation.
* Tip lock: The locking mechanism secures the selected position, helping maintain the chosen configuration during handling.
* Universal #3 pattern: This designation identifies the handle pattern and supports straightforward selection when compatible #3 blades are part of the facility’s inventory.
* 6 1/2-inch length: The listed length provides a defined instrument size for procurement, tray organization, and routine setup.
D-117-5781 is best viewed as a positioning-focused knife handle rather than a basic fixed handle. Its adjustable horizontal tip gives clinicians another way to configure blade presentation before use. Add this adaptable handle to a dermatology or minor procedure instrument set.
