Scalpels, precision cutting blades or craft knife blades?

Historically, knife blades have had many names. Often the terms scalpel and knife blade are mixed quite liberally. Sollex sees the scalpel as a type of knife blade for hand-held tools. Scalpels as we see them are relatively short and thin blades for penknives. These are used purely for precision cutting. We prefer the term scalpel for all our knife blades that fit penknives as it describes our product most accurately. Our scalpels are of high quality and are made from quality materials that have been specially ground. Our posters have a luxurious matte finish with no shine, the quality is both felt and seen!

Use good tools - scalpels from Sollex!

With our scalpels you can give your employees a little extra love. Invest in high-quality scalpels if you want to put the user first! We have scalpels in all sizes and shapes. Choose the scalpel that suits you and your interests. By combining several different scalpels, you can easily create the perfect combination for your application.

You can purchase a scalpel knife handle and the blade itself. There are many types and shapes of surgical blade that are designed for different purposes. For example, Swann Morton’s scalpel blades of numbers 10 and 11 have a sharpened end and are great for very detailed work. At the same time, surgical knives are extremely sharp and you have to be very careful when working with them and adhere to safety rules.

TIP: Make sure the size of the scalpel blade and handle are the same - this is especially important.

Scalpels from Swann-Morton, Sollex, Mozart, Martor and Slice

Our scalpels are divided into different categories to make it easy for you to find what you are looking for. We have chosen to offer scalpels from Sollex, Mozart, Swann-Morton, Martor and Slice in order to have as wide a range as possible. We keep almost all scalpels in stock to be able to deliver your order quickly.

We have in our assortment blades that resemble Swann Morton in their shape and the way they are used, but the end of the blade is flat or rounded. They are used in a set with a special non-surgical MOZART precision-cutting knife. The Mozart precision cutting knife is more robust compared to the more  commonly used medical scalpels. Use the Mozart precision cutting knife for more industrial cutting. The scalpel is very flexible and easy to use for detailed work. It is an ideal tool for cutting various materials such as cardboard, paper, wallpaper, plastic and textiles, gently deburring plastic parts, cutting leather, graphic design, and all kinds of precision cutting. A special stand station for safe storage of the scalpel and additional tools is available for purchase.

High quality is important to us

When you unpack your shipment of scalpels, we want you to feel the same love for the product that we do when we manufacture and deliver your order. All Sollex scalpels are made to a high quality. We use only quality steel that is ice hardened and specially ground for optimal sharpness. We also offer lightning fast delivery because we know how important it is to always keep the cutting process running.  We pride ourselves on the fact that our scalpels are from the most renowned scalpel manufacturers.  

Our scalpels:

• Swann-Morton (Scalpels developed for medical use, used where a very sharp or thin scalpel is desired)

• Sollex pointed blade (Very similar to a scalpel but stiffer and made of carbon steel, which allows you to re-sharpen the superblade. Best used for cutting leather and shoe materials)

• Mozart scalpels (Coarse scalpels for fine work where a more robust blade is needed than a standard medical scalpel)

• Martor's scalpels (Wide range of various scalpels for a wide variety of uses)

• Slice craft knife blades (Scalpels in ceramics which gives a very good durability. Slice scalpels are not so sharp but have a long durability)

• Sollex coated scalpels (If you want a scalpel blade with sharpness and with longer durability than usual, Sollex can specially coat scalpels for you. Please contact us regarding the type of scalpel)

When is it time to change a scalpel blade?

The length of time you can use one blade depends on the material you are cutting as well as the cutting techniques and pressure on a scalpel. But if you hear a specific sound while cutting, for example, a carton, it is time to replace the blade. It is advisable not to spare the blade, because a blunt blade can begin to tear the cutting material and the ends of the cut will be torn and sloppy.

Guidelines for removing a used scalpel blade from scalpel knife holder

• Using pliers, grasp the end of the blade closest to the handle by the blunt edge (where there is no sharp edge). Face away the cutting edge from the body and hand
• Lift the blade by the edge with the pliers, bending it slightly and being careful not to break the blade. Move it slowly forward from the handle, being sure to guide the movement away from yourself and others and then slide the handle away to the opposite side. Make sure to hold the blade downwards towards the instrument tray.
• Always dispose of the blade safely, such as in a safety blade box. Do not leave the blade lying around the work area or anywhere else; it is your responsibility to dispose of the blade safely.
