Swann Morton Scalpel Blade Remover
There is always some modest risk when fitting and removing SM scalpel blades to/from an SM steel handle. This specially designed little moulded tool clips over the sharp end of the blade. It makes it easier and safer to remove most SM blades without drawing blood!
Important: All used blades in your workshop should always be popped straight into a sharps tub. Almost any screw top plastic tub will do. Draw a guide line on the cap with a marker. To make the slot, grip a nail with pliers and hold it in a gas flame. When hot, carefully push the nail into the lid and draw it along the line. This saves cracking the lid.
