Rib back

I think "Rib Back" is a patented system against weaving when cutting with this kind of blades.
Example sentence:

Peer comment(s):

agree Silvia Brandon-Pérez : NO SE TRADUCE; es un sistema patentizado con ese nombre.

I doubt I can help with the Spanish. However, here are some refs to help with the term:

"rib back" = "grip" i.e. ribbed surface to enable surgeon to hold scalpel without problem of slipping and hence ensuring a straight cut!

Perhaps you could use "superficie.../agarre"
Good luck!
