The invention relates to a laryngoscope spatula with a spatula blade. The spatula blade, in cross section, has two side walls, which are spaced apart from each other along at least part of the length of the spatula blade, and two limbs. A first limb extends from the first side wall to beyond the second side wall, and a second limb extends from the second side wall to beyond the first side wall. The side walls and the limbs thus form a cavity. The spatula blade is composed of an upper shell and a lower shell which, in cross section, each have a first portion and two mutually oppositely directed second and third portions. The second portions of the upper shell and lower shell, lying flat on each other, form the first limb, and the third portions, lying flat on each other, form the second limb, while the first portions form the side walls. The invention further relates to a method for producing a spatula blade of such a laryngoscope spatula.
