my dad can get them, or actually he has them in the ambulance bag.
although i dont know where they are, and he would get a bit worried if i asked him for a scalpel.

you could get a scalpel off ebay, they come in handy craft kits, or go to a clinic/chemist and ask for one worth a try, tell them what its for offer to pay and see if they sell one.
