## Description

Swann-Morton No.3 Scalpel Handle # 0933

Review: Great handle, works for people with hams for hands. Very sturdy. - No3 blade handle, probably the most famous ever? Easy to hold, even with hands like hams! Blade change is quick and easy. Sized to (obviously) fit standard surgical blades.
Review: Smaller cuts are now availble - I use a lot of scalpel blades in my various modelling and craft projects that I do for leisure. I have favoured larger blades in a number 4 handle but for some more intricate work I have my smaller blades that need the number 3 handle. The advantage of this is that I can make smaller cuts to my fingers..... er, I mean the craft materials I am working with. Yeah, not fingers. I may have cut myself once or twice over the years. Basically you will need to check the blades that you're using are compatible with these handles, being Swann Morton they are designed for their blade range and are excellent quality. I always have a ready supply of blades and a couple of handles. Like other Swann Morton handles these have a small scale on them so you can measure the length of the cuts you make without having to reach for a separate measuring device, a nice feature even if you don't use it that often. On a more serious note, if you are concerned about cuts from the exposed blades, either for yourself, or if you have inquisitive pets or children then blade covers are available too, I tend to push my blades into a block of dense foam when not in use to stop the cuts, that and try to be more careful.
