Allis and Babcock Side by Side
Captions available
The idea
The Allis and the Babcock look alike from a distance, and the difference is at the jaws.
In practice
The Allis has sharp interlocking teeth; the Babcock has a smooth, rounded window that holds tissue without teeth.
Where people slip
Glance at the jaws, not the handles, before you pass either one.
