A medical hand tool (1) has a first and a second hand lever (2, 3), which have a handle (4, 5) and a tool part (6, 7) each, and which are pivotably connected to one another via a pivot pin (10). The first hand lever (2) forms a flat first base plate (8) in the area between the handle (4) and the tool (6) and the second hand lever (3) forms a flat second base plate (9) in the area between the handle (5) and the tool (7), in the area of which the pivot pin (10) is arranged. In order to be able to clean such a hand tool (1) reliably and completely by a machine, e.g., in a liquid-jet-generating cleaning machine, provisions are made for the pivot pin (10) to be provided in an end area passing through second base plate (9) with a radially expanded ring flange (12), which has a distance from the first base plate (8) that corresponds to at least twice the thickness of the second base plate (9) mounted on the pivot pin (10). The second hand lever (3) can be moved along the pivot pin (10) into a position, in which the contact surfaces (17, 18) of the flat base plates (8, 9), which face one another, are exposed.
