Content Description

This chromed steel tenaculum is 9.25" in length. The tip is sharply pointed and abbreviated, creating a jagged hook. The shaft widens slightly as it approaches the rounded lip of the handle, which squares off. There is a semicircular indention on the handle; to its right are inscribed the manufacturer's insignia -their name roundly distorted in capital letters- and, to the left, the word Tenaculum. On the opposite side, Pat. Pend. is inscribed.
