ABSTRACT:
A tray is described herein for holding and displaying a number of surgical instruments. Each of these instruments have a handle and contain an elongated shaft extending from the handle. The shaft itself defines a longitudinal axis. The tray contains a base defining a first plane for supporting the shafts of the instruments. There is further described a handle holding portion extending from the base. The handle holding portion contains a first side wall attached to the base and a bottom for holding the handle extending from the first side wall. The bottom defines a second plane. The first and second planes are not parallel. A package which holds the tray of this invention has a first surface which supports the base and a second surface which supports the bottom of the handle portion. Ideally, there is also a third surface extending from the base. The first and third surfaces are co-planar and capable of supporting the package and the tray containing the instruments. The tray is removed from the package and with the surgical instruments contained thereon. In this fashion, the tray is supported on a stand by the bottom and the surface extending from the second side wall.
