Potts Micro Scissors – Stainless Steel
Our Vision
A clean cut is the foundation of every successful microsurgery. Our scissors are crafted with the precision that tissue deserves.
Designed and manufactured in Germany. With the dedication and standards that microsurgery demands.
Highlights
Hand-ground edges for clean, atraumatic cuts. Every blade is inspected under the microscope.
The right tip shape for every requirement. From arteriotomies to fine dissection.
Precise spring mechanisms for hours of surgery without hand fatigue.
Ultra-fine, specially hardened blades for minimally invasive procedures on the most delicate tissue.
Jacobson, Potts, Yasargil, Bayonet, Spring Scissors – the right choice for every specialty.
CE-certified. MDR-compliant. Over 40 manufacturing steps per instrument.
Materials
Surgical Stainless Steel – Proven and autoclavable. Robust, sterilizable, durable. The standard for daily clinical use.
Titanium – Lightweight, non-magnetic, MRI-compatible. The titanium coating increases surface hardness and significantly reduces weight.
SuperCut Blades – Specially hardened, ultra-sharp ground edges. For the cleanest cut on the most delicate tissue.
Our Mission
We give surgeons the instruments they deserve. Not the cheapest. But the best.
Every micro scissors undergoes over 40 manufacturing steps. From forging the blades to the final hand-grinding under the microscope. No instrument leaves our facility that we wouldn't use in the OR ourselves.
Blade Design
Our blade geometry is the result of years of collaboration with surgeons. From the angle of the Potts blade to the spring of the Yasargil – every detail is optimized for maximum cutting performance.
Whether straight, curved, angled or with spring mechanism: every blade shape has been developed for specific surgical requirements.

Detail View
From the blade tip to the spring mechanism – crafted with the precision that microsurgery demands.
Titanium Series
The titanium coating is not just a visual statement. It increases surface hardness threefold, makes the instrument non-magnetic and significantly reduces weight.
The distinctive blue of our titanium series stands for our promise: uncompromising quality that you can see and feel. Ideal for procedures near MRI.
Our Values
We measure in micrometers, not millimeters. Every instrument is inspected under the microscope – because in microsurgery, there is no room for compromise.
Behind every instrument is a person being operated on. We carry this responsibility with pride – and with the highest quality standards.
We combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art CNC technology. The result: instruments that redefine the standard in microsurgery.
Our Micro Scissors in action – from vascular surgery to neurosurgery.
Potts scissors are the gold standard for arteriotomies and venotomies. Their angled blades enable clean cuts in vessel walls of any size.
Yasargil and Bayonet scissors offer perfect visibility and access in deep surgical fields. Their angled shape guarantees clear lines of sight during the finest dissection.
In CABG operations, every cut counts. Our Radialis scissors and Potts scissors are specifically developed for the demands of coronary surgery.
Aesthetic results begin with the right cut. Our finest scissors enable microvascular dissection with minimal tissue trauma.
