Performance test setting. a Silicone block position. Silicone blocks were used to compare resection performance. To avoid movement of the silicone block within the cutting window, the inner blade was slightly rotated to apply pre-tightening force. b Testing apparatus. The grip of the inner blade was fixed by the left clamp in a testing machine while the shaft of the outer blade was secured by the right clamp
