A medical device that includes a sheath, a tool within the sheath and movable relative to the sheath, and a handle including a rotation assembly configured to rotate the tool relative to the sheath in response to rotation of the rotation assembly relative to a portion of the handle. The rotation assembly rotates the tool relative to the sheath at predefined angular intervals and inhibits movement at each of the predefined angular intervals.
