[Histonet] microtome knife holder

[Connolly, Brett M]

Um, actually steel knives do in fact require a holder and disposable blades require a different holder, we have both from Leica.

Knives (not disposable blades) do not need holders. They are used by themselves.

Hi again everyone,

I also wanted to ask if anyone has, or new if there was ever, a regular knife (not blade) holder for the Reichert Yung 2030 microtome and/or the Leica microtome series.

thank you again in advance,
