info on microtome blade sharpeners?

Question

thank you

Answer 1

those are quite expensive, the ones made by Leica, probably $7,000+ new.

Here's one but I can't find the price:

You might want to check around the used lab equipment places, like your local university or sites on the web

can you use disposable microtome blades? it might be cheaper.
