9 Goldman-Fox Knife belongs to the Goldman-Fox family of periodontal instruments, a name that covers several distinct instrument types (scalers, curettes, scissors, and this knife line) built around a shared design philosophy for periodontal surgical work.
As a knife rather than a scaler or curette, its job is incision, not debridement: making the primary cut in a gingivectomy, or the internal bevel incision that begins flap reflection in periodontal surgery. The double-ended design puts two working ends on one handle, letting the surgeon access two blade orientations without switching instruments mid-procedure.
Numbered 9, this is the third pattern in a graduated Goldman-Fox knife set. Like other numbered periodontal knife series, the different patterns in the set carry different blade angulations so the surgeon can select the one that reaches a given surgical site cleanly, rather than working an ill-suited blade shape into a difficult angle. Periodontists and oral surgeons performing gingivectomy, flap surgery, and osseous recontouring keep the full numbered set on hand for exactly this reason, since the anatomy at each surgical site dictates which blade angulation makes for a clean, controlled incision rather than one that has to be forced or approached at an awkward hand position. Having pattern 9 available specifically means one less compromise during the procedure. Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant, fully autoclavable.
