Outline of Final Research Achievements	We have developed a one part grasping forceps fabricated by Metal Injection Molding in order to realize low in cost, mass-produced and disposability. The new forceps is no assemblage and no risk of part decomposition. As the result of the verification experiment, the forceps operated opening and closing without plastic transformation.
