Swan Morton Handle No 3

Now, its fair to say that I'm not a brain surgeon. More of a mechanical one that furtles around the insides of large marine engines and boilers hoping to resurect the dead before the storm hits. However, I am a model maker and of course sharp cutting devices are essential for a clean finish. Now, many of us use the Xacto type knife which, works very well indeed. However, the blades whilst not exepenive are not that cheap either. Step forward the surgeon's tool of choice, the Swan-Morton surgical knife. Comfortable to use and most of all you can get boxes of the disposable blades - which are damned sharp - for not much money. A 100 pack is only a few quid so you can always ensure that you have a razor sharp blade in use when working on your model. As far as I'm concerned for model making this is a no brainer. Always going to be sharp, cheap to buy and if you ever get the itch to change career and take up open heart surgery then you will have the tool skills already ingrained.

Brilliant reliable handle all that’s needed is to choose the right blades for cut you will be doing the blades design shows cutting angles. I have used Swan Morton for longtime it’s precision is very well designed

Use this for miniature modelling and sculpting. It has replaces my hobby Knife. Best thing I did. 10a blades for this too

For a technician this would be better with a small magnet press fitted into it. Also needs a sheaf. Other than that its a bit of steel that will not lose its shape anytime soon.

It's a scalpel handle. It's my favourite scalpel handle. It's also my only scalpel handle.

This is the second one I have purchased, I lost or mislaid my first one, I would not have replaced the first one with any other scalpel, thousands of people in the surgical profession can't be wrong!

Not a lot to say. It's a genuine Swann scalpel handle, and it obviously takes Swann blades with no fiddle or wobble. Came reasonably quickly (non-Prime).

One of the best brands. i recommend.

Ett fint skaft med bra tyngd som ligger bra i handen. Lite svårt att få kraft i skäret dock men det beror mer på mig än på skaftet. Har ett lite kraftigare handtag som jag använder för den typen av jobb.

Este soporte para cuchillas del Nº3 en mi opinión, es uno de los mejores que han pasado por mis manos. Es robusto, se ve que los materiales son de calidad, y la hoja en el ni se inmuta. Da gusta trabajar con el, como do para la mano. Cierto es, que es un poco pesado, pero no podía ser perfecto al 100%. No me lo pensaría y lo volvería a comprar, de echo compro el numero 4 también, así tengo la parejita

un outil parfait, ergonomique pour ma pédicure la lame se glisse assez facilement (voir tutos sur youtube si nécessaire car la gestuelle doit être précise) et cela permet de faire des soins "pro" à la maison et d'espacer ses rdv chez le pédicure ps: à manier avec beaucoup de précision pour ne pas se blesser !!

Non c'è molto da dire... Non c'è niente di meglio in commercio. Uso un portalame misura 4 Swann-Morton da molti anni e un manico misura 3 per modellismo, accettabile ma leggero, quasi impalpabile a differenza del n. 4, solido, pesante, bilanciato, un piacere impugnarlo. Così ho deciso di acquistare il n. 3 della stessa marca e sono decisamente soddisfatto: stessa qualità e stesse sensazioni del "fratello maggiore" nell'uso, un gran senso di sicurezza e stabilità. Ripeto, non si può consigliare di meglio.

Conform to my expectations
