Vivisection Gage
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Vivisection Gages are a tool used by Deathwatch Techmarines and Apothecaries, especially those affiliated with the Magos Biologis, mainly used to maintain the ranks of Deathwatch Servitors.[1]
Common in the forges and laboratories of the Techmarines in Watch Fortress Erioch, the vivisection gage is an elbow-length gauntlet composed of tightly interlocking plates of adamantine and ceramite. The hand itself contains augmentation similar to that of a cybernetic hand, and the fingers contain a number of laser cutters, bio-solvents, auto-injectors, shears and flensing instruments. While designed as a medical or scientific device, the vivisection gage can also be used as an extremely efficient interrogation device as well.[1]
