SKIN GRAFTING KNIVES
Skin grafting knives are used for obtaining the superficial layers of skin (split thickness) for grafting.
They are therefore broad and lighter than amputation knives.
Those in use are
· Blair
· Humby
· Braithwaite
· Padgett’s dermatome
Skin-grafting knives are broad, but are lighter than conventional knives, they are used for obtaining large pieces of skin (split-thickness superficial) for grafting.
Some knives have guards, to prevent knife from going deep into skin.
Padgett’s dermatomes drum has adhesive on its surface, & adherent skin is cut on the drum, cut skin is then taken of the drum
