Skin grafting instruments typically include razors with one edge flat and hook for stretching skin. In skin grafting, razors are used for removing strips of the epidermal skin layer. The incision is best made by a to-and-fro sawing motion, keeping the flat edge of the razor parallel with the skin surface. Hooks are generally in retractor form with blades recurved and provided with fine short teeth. These are employed to engage and draw the skin tightly while it is being incised with a razor or other cutting instrument.
