A medical instrument for use in surgical procedures such as laparoscopic surgery includes a flexible coupler that secures the instrument to the base of a surgeon's hand or wrist. The flexible coupler assists in securing the instrument within the hand by allowing providing a means of tensioning the device within the hand of the surgeon. In this manner, the medical instrument may be used within the patient. The instrument is small enough to be easily passed through an opening in the abdomen of a patient while being held within or against the palm of the hand. The instrument includes two branches connected together via a base. Each branch includes a jaw, an exterior gripping surface, and a working end arranged opposite the base. Teeth may be provided on an interior surface of each jaw.
