A Blot's Arrow Perforator made from
nickel plated base metal. The tip of the perforator is flat and has
no locking mechanism. The steel sprung handle in its resting position keeps
the blades closed whilst penetrating the
foetal skull. The blades are opened by applying pressure to the
handle which widens the perforation and allows subsequent collapse
of the skull so as to remove the dead foetus in cases of arrested
labour due to cephalopelvic disproportion. In excellent condition
throughout noting minima loss of plating.
