ABSTRACT:
Clip forceps have a pair of clamp members each having a clamp portion and a handle portion extending from the clamp portion. The pair of clamp members cross each other so as to have an X-shaped configuration and are pivotally coupled together at their point of intersection. Grip portions extend from the respective handle portions so that the clamp portions can be moved toward and away from each other by moving the grip portions. Each of the grip portions is curved inwardly, has a semi-oval cross section and has a plurality of projections which provide the outer surface thereof.
