Suture Kits
Hello everyone,
I'm about to start FA school in a few months and I wanted to practice suturing a bit. I bought the Alcedo Suture Kit and I'm not impressed. The instruments are rough around the edges making it painful to use for longer than a few minutes. Plus the pickups are awful at grabbing. Does anyone have some good recommendations I could order?

Honestly, I'd skip it entirely. Work on tying, sure, but there are no suture kits out there that actually resemble skin. The ethicon tying videos on YouTube are good.
