Re: Monomolecular blades
If I remember correctly, the reason why glass scalpels are better is because they cause less damage to the surrounding tissue because they are sharper, they are easier to clean during a procedure, and they do not suffer from corrosion (even a tiny amount of corrosion will adversely effect the performance of a steel scalpel). Their hardness also keeps them from becoming dull during a procedure, which can be useful during complex and long procedures.
