The scalpel is graduated on the back of the handle and marked with the CE symbol. The sterile scalpels are individually packaged in a clear molded tray that provides better visibility of the product. When peeled from the pack, the seal changes color, indicating whether the integrity of the pack has been violated and assuring the user of sterility up to the point of use.

Disposable scalpels are seen as a convenient alternative to the traditional blade mounted on a metal handle, but they do not offer the same feel and lateral stability when incising, which is why they are often used for minor procedures outside the operating room and in the hospital wards. They can also be seen in the Emergency Department (ER), where time can be of the essence, especially when treating severe trauma victims.
