The portion of the ridge 16 is worked in a substantially flat shape of the predetermined width and length from a part close to the tip of the needle tip part 21 toward a base side, and the worked portion is formed trapezoidal in section. An upper surface 15 of the blade portion 19 is ground in substantially flat, a flash piece 20 is ground off to form a bald tip 19a, and a cutting blade 25 is formed on ridges 27a, 18a on both sides of the blade tip 19a.

As a conventional method for manufacturing a surgical suture needle, for example, a technique shown in FIG. 10 is generally known. According to this conventional technique, a press forming die (not shown) provided with a V-groove is used to press one end of a round bar-shaped needle material. A substantially equilateral triangular bar-shaped portion 1 is formed. Next, the upper surface 2 on the distal end side of the rod-shaped portion 1 is indicated by an imaginary line 3 in FIG.
By this grinding, as shown in FIG. B, the ridge lines provided on both sides of the grinding surface 2a are sharply formed as the cutting blades 4 and 5, and the tip is sharply formed. It is manufactured.

However, in the suture needle manufactured by the above-described conventional technique, the entire cutting edge is formed in a substantially equilateral triangular cross section, so that the height h from the ground surface 2a to the apex (ridge line 6) is increased. The cross-sectional area increases. For this reason, there is a problem that puncture resistance at the time of piercing the tissue is increased, which causes pain to the patient.

[0005] To solve the above problem, FIG.
As shown in the figure, the triangular bar-shaped portion 1 is moved to the vertex (ridge line 6a).
The upper surface 7 on the tip side of the rod-shaped portion 1 is formed as shown by the imaginary line 3a in the same manner as described above. Then, as shown in FIG. D, a method has been proposed in which ridges provided on both sides of the grinding surface 7a are sharply formed as acute-angled cutting edges 4a, 5a to manufacture a suture needle. Cutting unit according to this method is formed in a cross-section an obtuse triangular shape, the height h 1 from the grinding surface 7a until ridge 6a is lower than that of FIG. 10B, the cross-sectional area decreases. Therefore, the piercing resistance can be reduced and the pain of the patient can be reduced.

However, if the cutting edges 4a and 5a of the ridges on both sides of the upper surface 7a are formed at an acute angle to reduce the distance from the surface 7a to the ridge 6a, the piercing resistance is reduced as described above. In this case, the strength decreases with respect to the bending moment applied perpendicularly to the suturing needle, and the bending becomes easy. As a result, there arises a problem that operability at the time of suturing is deteriorated.
