[Histonet] KnifeMaker

[Gayle Callis]

See if you can get a local metalworking shop (we have a fellow who does
scientific instruments) make one for you or out of some type of springlike
material and get several backups. 

Hopefully, Reichert Jung (did you try contacting Leica Microsystems about
the problem?) might have one in a drawer somewhere.  Contact
Don.Birgerson <@t> leica-microsystems.com, he is very knowledgable about these
instruments, and he has always been graciously helpful with plights like
this.
