ABSTRACT:
A handle is provided for blades, and particularly surgical blades, which allows simple insertion sequentially of a plurality of blades, and closure to a locked postion of the blade, upon insertion. The two parts of the handle pivot relative to one another in the same longitudinal plane around a pivot positioned adjacent the blade position. This allows a relatively long handle portion for gripping the device for ejecting the blade, using the thumb or finger of the same hand for opening the holder for ejection single-handedly. The gripping portion of the handle has adjacent to the blade portion thereof a boss which conforms to the opening in the blade tang. Closure causes the movble portion of the handle to cover the boss and the blade tang in a wedging action preventing movement of the blade relative to the handle in closed position. When opening, the user pushes the movable portion of the handle open while holding the blade and boss of the fixed handle portion facing downward so that the blade falls out of the device, without any touching or movement of any kind, into a sharps collector.
