Artman InstrumentsMayo Hegar Needle Holder 6" Tungsten Carbide Inserts, Gold Plated Needle Driver with Strong Lock, Serrated Jaws for Precise Suturing, Autoclavable

I use these for suturing. They are a great price, strong and reliable.

Very well made. Unclear country of origin.

This product is a fantastic find! It's reasonably priced, making it accessible for most budgets without compromising on quality. The product is exactly as described, and its usefulness cannot be overstated. I've found it to be incredibly practical and efficient in meeting my needs. The attention to detail is impressive, and the performance is on par with more expensive alternatives. If you're looking for something reliable, well-made, and at a fair price point, this is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

the package was opened and there are obvious scratches on the tool :(

I needed a good extra long pair of hemostats, with good leverage- I didn't know this was an option until I came across it. I use it on all sorts of things, like pulling fuses, installing grommets, grabbing dropped screws, and even this: I had a spark plug boot that broke and dropped rubber down on top of the actual spark plug, causing a situation where I couldn't get a socket to fit on the plug. These and my Knipex needle nose pliers were able to get the junk out. Oh, you could also use this to clamp smaller hoses and stuff. This is a set of excellent precision needle nose pliers- called "needle holders" in the surgical sphere.It's a special tool, for sure, but one that has earned a permanent spot in my tool chest. My favorite feature is how far down the joint is compared to other normal hemostats. This lets you really get a lot more leverage. The teeth are also good; they seem to fit together. I haven't tried to twist them yet, so I can't really speak on the durability of the actual joint, but the placement is very good.Finally, I appreciate that it came with its own plastic sleeve. It's becoming too common now that tools are sold without an actual case or container.

It's all about those carbide jaws. They fit together like a glove allowing you to use these for tweezers, but they have enough power to do so much more.

The needle drivers that come in the kits are crap. This is what I was hoping for; very good quality!

I got these for practicing suturing as a vet student and they are waaaay better quality than I was expecting. The professors all really liked them and many of my classmates liked them so much they bought them for themselves!
