In the example of FIG. 49 the threaders are labeled to facilitate their use in a procedure to attach, for example, a tendon to a bone. The first suture threader 600 is labeled with a “1” and the message “TUNNEL SUTURES” to indicate that it is used, preferably first, to thread sutures extending from the bone tunnel in which the anchor will be seated through the anchor. The second suture threader 610 is labeled with a “2” and the message “TENDON SUTURES” to indicate that it is used, preferably second, to thread sutures extending from the soft tissue, tendon in this example, through the suture anchor.
