Max Plus BP Scalpel Handle Combined 3 & 4 is a surgical instrument used to hold disposable scalpel blades. Here's a breakdown of what that means :  

BP Handle : "BP" stands for Bard-Parker, the company that first developed and popularized these types of handles and the corresponding blade fitting system. The term "BP handle" is now often used generically to refer to any scalpel handle that uses this standard fitting.

Combined 3&4 : This indicates that the handle is double-ended, with one end designed to fit a No. 3 scalpel blade and the other end designed to fit a No. 4 scalpel blade. This provides the surgeon with the versatility of using different blade sizes without having to switch between two separate handles during a procedure.

No. 3 Handle : This handle is generally used with smaller scalpel blades, typically those numbered 6 through 16 (like the popular No. 10, No. 11, No. 12, and No. 15 blades). These blades are used for making more precise and delicate incisions in various surgical procedures.

No. 4 Handle : This handle is larger than the No. 3 and is designed to fit larger scalpel blades, typically those numbered 18 through 36 (like the No. 20, No. 21, No. 22, No. 23, No. 24, and No. 25 blades). These blades are often used for making larger incisions in thicker tissues, such as in general surgery, orthopedics, and pathology.
