Review: Great quality - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Excellent Quality – Perfect for Professional Dermaplaning! As a licensed esthetician, I’m very particular about the tools I use—especially for dermaplaning—and this scalpel handle exceeded my expectations. The weight is perfect: it has a nice, heavy feel in the hand that gives me full control during treatments, unlike the flimsy, lightweight handles I’ve used in the past. It feels solid and professional, with no cheap or hollow sensation. The grip is comfortable and balanced, which makes precise movements easier and reduces hand fatigue during longer sessions. It also holds blades securely, so I never have to worry about slippage. My clients get amazing results, and I truly believe this handle plays a big role in that.

I use this instead of an Exacto knife for building model planes. **Q: will a 60xt blade fit this** A: We are unfamiliar with the 60XT Blade. If you are referring to the Swann-Morton PM60 Blade, then it is used with the PM8 handle; the placement of the blade is similar to that of a standard blade and surgical handle. However, it may be unavailable in the US. **Q: Does this handle work with other (cheaper) blades?** A: This is the standard #3 small fitment handle - it will work with all small fitment blades, Swann-Morton Blades - Nos. 6, 9, 10, 10A, 10R, E/11, 11, 11P, 12, 12D, 13, 14, 15, 15A, 15C, 15T, 16, 40 and SG3. If the blades you have do not fit this high quality handle, then they are more likely to be at fault than the handle itself. **Q: Can this handle be used for #14 blades? the above description doesn’t state #14 but below in the detailed description it shows it will fit a #14 blade** A: Yes, the #14 Blades will fit this handle - this is the standard handle for Swann-Morton minor range blades ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Derma-blade review *by K***R on March 5, 2025* Material: Stainless Steel Compatibility: Fits No. 10, 11, 12, and 15 blades Usage: Precision Cutting, Medical, Crafting First Impressions: The Scalpel Handle No. 3 has a solid stainless steel construction, giving it a professional feel and a comfortable weight in hand.
