A medical instrument includes a proximal handle (), for controlling a distal tool, including two grip pieces () pivotable relative to one another, subjected to spring force and coupled in movement via a path guide with a path component (). The path component includes a guide path (), and a guide body () on a guide component (). The guide body engages into the guide path. The components () are arranged on one of the grip pieces and are subjected to a spring force, transversely to a pivoting plane of the grip pieces. One of the components () is pivotably arranged on a grip piece. Functionally independent of the guide body () and guide path (), a latching body () is received by a latching receiver () on the components () for a latching function, blocking pivoting movement of the grip pieces.
