Bard-Parker Surgical Scalpels & Blades

Trusted in operating rooms and procedure suites for generations, Bard-Parker from Aspen Surgical is a benchmark name in surgical cutting instruments. This collection focuses on sterile, single-use scalpels that pair a precision surgical-grade blade with an integrated handle — ready to open and use, with no reprocessing or assembly required.

Every scalpel here features a nonslip grip handle with a centimeter scale printed along the shaft, giving clinicians both a secure hold and a quick reference for measuring incisions or lesions during a procedure. The blades are conventional carbon or stainless steel, sterile, and individually packaged, making them well suited to environments where cross-contamination control and instrument traceability matter.

Blade selection comes down to the task at hand. The No. 10 (models 371610, 372610) is a curved-belly blade for general skin incisions and larger cutting strokes. The No. 11 (372611) is a pointed, straight-edged blade favored for stab incisions, puncturing, and precise work like removing sutures or lancing abscesses. The No. 15 (371615, 372615) offers a smaller curved edge ideal for short, careful incisions, dermatologic procedures, and pediatric or delicate anatomy.

Because these are disposable, they arrive consistently sharp and eliminate the resharpening, cleaning, and sterilization overhead of reusable handles — a practical advantage for outpatient clinics, dermatology and podiatry practices, and any facility standardizing on single-use protocols. Buyers typically stock a mix of blade sizes to cover routine and specialty needs.
