General Surgery Knives Skin grafting

     Skin grafting knives in use are used for obtaining the superficial layers of skin for grafting.

     Those in use are:

•   Blair skin grafting knife (Fig. 8.6)

•   Humby skin grafting knife (Fig. 8.7)

•   Braithwaite modification of Humby knife (Fig. 8.8)

•   Padgett’s dermatome (Fig. 8.9)

     Skin grafting knives are also large but are lighter since they are for obtaining large pieces of split thickness (superficial layers) skin for grafting.
