Is dat het best vertaald als 'het handgehouden gedeelte van het instrument'?

handstuk (a comment)
Explanation:
In German it's Handstück as dental instrument and also as an instrument of brain surgery, so I hope, in Dutch it will fit too. At Google I've found only 1 link (handstuk + neurochirurgie) - see below.

Uwe, I was going to write my Thank you in German, but chickened out :-). Anyhow, I appreciate the references, as somehow I could not find anything in using my regular thought patterns! Sometimes the simplest translations are correct! Danke schön! Marijke

'handknop' bestaat dus (uiteraard) en wellicht klinkt het bovenstaande dan iets beter dan jouw suggestie.

handstuk


Explanation:
If it's a dental instrument, the translation will be this simple one.

From the link below:

HP (handpiece voor het rechte handstuk);

(I don't speak Dutch, but a Google search for "handstuk" gives a lot of results.)
