surgical tools
Implements for operations
Surgical tools are instruments designed for use in medical operations—scalpels, forceps, clamps, retractors, and the like.
The phrase encompasses everything from delicate microsurgery instruments to bone saws.
The surgical tools were laid out on the sterile tray.
Figuratively, surgical tools can describe any precise implements for careful work.
