About the Hoke Osteotome
The Hoke osteotome is an orthopaedic osteotome: a one-piece, chisel-like hand instrument whose sharp distal edge cuts or shapes bone when the surgeon strikes the proximal end with a surgical mallet.
As with osteotomes generally, the cutting edge is bevelled on both sides rather than on one face, which distinguishes it from a true chisel. Registry listings for the Hoke pattern describe straight instruments of fairly short overall length, sold as a series of blade widths so that a set can cover fine and broader cuts.
Length, blade width and handle construction differ between manufacturers, so the pattern name alone does not fix the dimensions.
