For the manufacture of scalpels use medical stainless steel. Disposable scalpels do not require high corrosion resistance, so they are made of hardened chromium steel for cold forming. Reusable scalpels are distinguished by either a high chromium content (95X18) or a more complex alloying (X12MF). Scalpel blades for ophthalmic operations are usually made of leucosapphire or ceramic, stellites with a thick diamond coating. Due to the high cost, they are forced to be reusable.
Modern scalpels are often made collapsible - a removable blade is attached to a permanent handle, which can not be resharpened.
The surgical scalpel is intended for dissection of soft tissues during surgical interventions. The ergonomic shape of the scalpel handle provides a comfortable grip of the instrument.
