An ultrasonic surgical blade comprising a body having a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end of the body is movable relative to a longitudinal axis by vibrations produced by a transducer. The body comprises a longitudinally extending bore formed within the ultrasonic surgical blade. The ultrasonic surgical blade is configured to emit a spray from the bore at the distal end thereof to substantially prevent fluid from contacting the distal end of the ultrasonic surgical blade.
