REFERENCE TO THE CUT. — 
The blade of the trocar is of steel, fixed into a wood- 
en handle. ‘The shape of the blade of the trocar is oval. 
The canula or sheath is an oval tube, which exactly 
fits the blade of the trocar; the concave circular plate 
fixed at the end of the canula, forming a hilt, to pre- 
vent the instrument from giving too deep a wound 
when used: the end of the canula is worked down to 
a sharp edge, that it may not obstruct the passage of 
the instrument.
