Review: 🦄 Last Tweezer You'll Ever Need. - I have no idea how Revlon gets away w selling those ridiculous, useless tweezers they do. These microsurgical tweezers are phenomenal!!! I will never go back to the other. Baller purchase. Kinda' big time annoyed I have 10 other girly pop Revlon Tweezers to get rid of now. Grrrr.... #JustSayin Review: Looks like a good quality castroviejo needle holder - I bought this for the purpose of handling small needles and fine suture materials in the range of 5-0 and 6-0. It seems to be a fine instrument and has tungsten carbide inserts with cross serrations in the jaws. The curved jaws are able to grasp fine hair strands so it should be enough for fine suture materials. The locking mechanism works well. The only complaint I have is the handles feel a little sharp at the edges, which would be better if it was smoothened out a little. They seem like they can withstand autoclaving, however, I have not tested them out personally. I'll have to try them out and see. ## Features - Tungsten cardbide (TC) jaw inserts allow for maximized and secure, non-slip control of the needle/suture.

The picture tells the story: one half of the locking mechanism was hanging up on the other. It was easy to correct by very slightly bending the—circled in the photo—bottom half of the mechanism towards us so that it would slide properly against the upper part. It does not take much force and was easy to bend the part into compliance. Once that was solved, they are very well made and with jaws that are formed excellently and come together perfectly aligned. I like them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cynamed TC Castroviejo Micro Needle/Suture Holder Driver with Tungsten Carbide Inserts and Gold Ends - Premium Grade Instrument (5.5 in.
