The 28 cm version gives a long stroke for large bones. Meanwhile, the second version is listed at 35.0 mm, which likely refers to the blade. Please contact us to confirm details.

A historic maker’s name

Joseph-Frederic Charriere was a famous instrument maker, and the French catheter scale carries the name. In addition, this saw follows a classic design. Besides, it remains a reliable manual saw.

Who uses the Charriere amputating saw

Limb surgeons pick it for amputations in the thigh and leg. Also, oncology teams take it for bone resections. Backup and outreach sets carry it too.

Technique

Begin with short strokes to start the cut. Then use full strokes and steady pressure. Irrigate to reduce heat.

Spare blades

We list spare saw blades separately. Consequently, ask us which blade fits your saw. Moreover, that keeps the saw cutting well.

Choosing the Charriere version

The 28 cm version suits most adult limb work. On the other hand, the version listed at 35.0 mm may suit a different blade depth. We are glad to confirm both before you order.
