Description

The Swan Necked Gouge is designed for controlled bone removal during orthopedic procedures. It has an overall length of 28.5 cm (11″) and a 25 mm wide working end. The neck curves between the blade and handle, giving the gouge its characteristic swan-neck shape.

The broad working end has a slightly curved cutting surface rather than a narrow point. Its 25 mm width provides a good-sized area for removing bone, while the shaped end can be positioned against the surface being worked on.

The curved neck changes the angle between the blade and handle. This can be useful when the surgeon needs to approach bone from an offset position rather than bringing the handle directly in line with the working end. The longer shaft also gives some additional reach during orthopedic procedures.

The handle is broad and rounded, providing a firm surface to hold while the gouge is positioned and guided. The metal shaft flows into the handle without unnecessary joints around the working area, keeping the instrument simple to handle during bone work.

The 25 mm blade width makes this gouge suited to procedures where a broader section of bone needs to be removed. The curved working end can be advanced gradually rather than relying on one heavy movement, allowing the amount of bone removed to be controlled during the procedure.

Made from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the metal portion is intended for repeated professional use and sterilization. Each instrument is carefully checked for quality, including the cutting end, neck, shaft, handle connection, and overall finish. The working edge should also be inspected before use for chips, bending, or other damage.

The Swan Necked Gouge combines a broad 25 mm working end with a curved neck and long handle for controlled bone removal in orthopedic surgery.
