ABSTRACT:
Suture cutting apparatus includes a notched holding blade having a predetermined thickness and a cutting blade for cutting suture elements held in the notch of the holding blade. The notch of the holding blade is generally axially extending with respect to the longitudinal axis of the holding blade and the notch extends inwardly from an outer tip of the holding blade. The holding blade is of a predetermined thickness so that the bottom of the blade may be disposed on a knot and the cutter blade will cut off the suture elements disposed in the notch at a predetermined distance above the knot. The predetermined distance is the thickness of the holding blade.
