ABSTRACT:
A package for a surgical blade or the like is provided which enables the blade to be readily attached to the elongated end of a handle without requiring the blade to be removed from the package during the manipulations attendant to the attachment. The package includes a flexible top panel and a flexible bottom panel which coact with one another to form an elongated blade-accommodating pocket having an opening therefor spaced from one end of the bottom panel. The accommodated blade has a slotted attachment end disposed adjacent the pocket opening. The handle end is inserted into the pocket opening between the blade and bottom panel and into the blade slot while the blade and associated panel portions are flexed a slight amount until the blade and handle end interlock with one another when the blade is returned to an unflexed condition and while the blade remains completely within the pocket. The handle end with the blade attached thereto is then withdrawn from the pocket out through the pocket opening.
