Schmieden Dura Scissors 170mm (17cm) – Neurosurgical Scissors

Schmieden Dura Scissors, named after the German surgeon Viktor Schmieden (1874–1945), feature a distinctive curved blade profile for tangential dural incision during supratentorial craniotomy. The curved geometry follows the curvature of the skull and dural convexity. This 170mm (17cm) variant is forged from AISI 420 martensitic German-grade Stainless Steel, hardened to 54–56 HRC. Dura scissors are essential neurosurgical instruments for incising the dura mater during craniotomy and spinal surgery while protecting the underlying brain and spinal cord.
