High-frequency forceps for medical use that include a manipulation part including a grasping portion that is conductive; a cylindrical part that is inflexible, through which a wire for manipulation of the grasping portion and a cable for supplying current to the grasping portion are guided; and an insulating part that electrically insulates the manipulation part from the cylindrical part. The cylindrical part includes: an outer layer made of an insulating material; an inner layer made of an insulating material; and an intermediate layer located between the outer layer and the inner layer, and having a lower insulation resistance and a higher stiffness than the outer layer and the inner layer.
