Micro-knife

Description and Features

  • Versatile knives made of SUS (stainless steel) and ruby, suitable for cutting, incising, scraping, and notching substances. Different shapes are offered such as single-edge, double-edge, and scraper blades.
  • We offer single-edge, double-edge, and flat-edge types optimized for manipulation purposes.
  • The single-edge type allows pinpoint cutting of high polymer films and similar materials.
  • The double-edge type is effective for excavating buried foreign objects using its tip.
  • The ruby flat-edge type is recommended for inclined cutting of buried foreign objects, facilitating their exposure and continuous sectioning.

Ruby Knives

It is an overly precision knives made from ruby.
Since it will be hard to generate a shadow if it is used very much for excision of a detailed portion etc., workability rises sharply.
