The invention relates to a resetting tool (1a), for the axial displacement of a Kirschner wire (2a), in particular, for application with bone plates, which may be implanted for the fixing of fractures. The above comprises a Kirschner wire (2a), comprising a thread in at least a part region and at least one guide tube (4a, 4b), by means of which the Kirschner wire may be positioned. A nut (3a) is provided, which is slotted and contains an internal drilling, such that the nut may be placed over the Kirschner wire and may be supported on the guide tube, whereby the Kirschner wire may be displaced in the axial direction by means of rotation of the nut.
