Tweezerman model 1310-PGC uses tapered, hand-filed and aligned stainless-steel tips on a wider, longer body with a textured grip. The official directions say to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible and apply steady upward pressure without twisting or squeezing, closely matching current CDC general removal guidance. Its 4.84-inch length gives the hand more distance from the bite site, although it lacks a protective travel case in this standalone version.
