Sharpoint™ utilizes a precise proprietary process, Infinite Edge™ technology, to manufacture incision products that are consistently sharp and dimensionally true.

Infinite sharpness

The Infinite Edge™ technology non-grinding sharpening process begins by obtaining a high quality stainless steel that is hardened and tempered to a uniform tensile strength and toughness. This process produces a structure that can be finished to ensure a consistently sharp, precise cutting edge.

Infinite consistency

Infinite Edge™ technology virtually assures that the 100th blade or needle is as sharp and dimensionally consistent as the first. The process to form the various configurations utilizes high purity carbon tools that produce a consistent product dimension. These precision tools are relatively wear-free compared to the continued variations experienced in using traditional grinding manufacturing methods. Infinite Edge™ technology for automated manufacturing minimizes operator handling to produce unparalleled consistency.

Infinite design

Infinite Edge™ technology offers unlimited geometric shapes not readily achievable with traditional manufacturing methods used to fabricate most steel and diamond incision products. These endless shape geometries are attained with unprecedented thinness and strict tolerances. Infinite designs are easily recognizable in:



Sharpoint™ Restricted Depth Knives utilize a unique one-piece construction to allow for precise depth control. Infinite Edge™ technology reduces manufacturing operations and keeps many tolerances to less than +/- 0.1mm.


Sharpoint™ Clear Corneal Knives feature transitional cutting edges and tapered facets that compensate for the curvature of the cornea, producing a linear self sealing incision.


Sharpoint™ UltraGlide™ Sutures feature a unique tip design with 6 faceted sides and 2 precision cutting edges that lift and cut for effortless penetration pass after pass. An exclusive design only in Sharpoint™ products.
