Medical instrument

A medical instrument comprising:

• a first arm extending in a longitudinal direction and having a first grip area between a rear end and a front working end, the first arm comprising a first inner recess formed on a first inner side, the first inner recess extending beyond the first grip area in the longitudinal direction;
• and
• a second arm extending in the longitudinal direction and having a second grip area between a rear end and a front working end, the second arm comprising a second inner recess formed on a second inner side, the second inner recess extending beyond the second grip area in the longitudinal direction,
• wherein the first and second arms are connected to each other at their rear ends and/or their front working ends,
• wherein at least two groups of at least two elongated holes are formed in at least one of the grip areas, which are arranged offset to each other in the longitudinal direction and offset to each other transversely to the respective longitudinal direction;
• wherein at least two of the elongated holes have a length extending in the longitudinal direction and a width extending in a transverse direction, the length being longer than the width,
• wherein the at least two elongated holes of each group are on a straight line,
• wherein the at least two groups of at least two elongated holes overlap in a lateral direction;
• and
• wherein a plurality of grooves are formed in the grip areas, the plurality of grooves of each grip area spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction, each one of the plurality of grooves running transversely to the longitudinal direction so that a raised area is present between adjacent ones of the plurality of grooves, and the raised area comprises an arcuate section and a plurality of flat sections, the respective ones of the plurality of flat sections being spaced apart transversely to the longitudinal direction.
