Naegele's Perforator

 
A device which prior to the caesarian section was a lifesaving procedure for a mother in obstructed labour. Similar in function to the Simpson's perforator but with a "snapcatch" handle lock which ensured that the pointed ends stayed firmly together while entering the skull. Marked with the makers name "Cizek & Hajsl"
