Good pricing on plotter knives

Hey Folks!

We found a great source for knives for our plotters and I thought I'd share so you can save some monies! Havel's inc, out of Cincinatti. For our mimaki cutter, grimco charges us 21.50 ea or if you buy 5, 18.50 ea. I have ordered a couple times from Havel, their blades are 13.50 ea and if you buy 5 you get one free. The blades are not listed on their website, they specialize in surgical knives, medical and sewing needles. I have attached 2 pdfs of their pricing. Another good deal is 200 no.11 exactos for 30 bucks.
We've also bought knives for our old workhorse the Ioline classic 24, (the ole' girl is 14 y.o. and she's still cutting!) and they work great.

Plotter blades are actually kind of high in price !

That ad is from 2007.

Where are they cheaper?
That ad is still good....I should probably tell them to change the year! anyway...where can I get a cheaper mimaki 37 degree knife? Here I was thinking I was sharing something good with everyone...):
I have learned so much here I was trying to give pack

I only buy from Ross at Clean Cut Blades.

A chef does not want the cheapest possible knives... he wants the best he can buy. A good blade is your lifeblood. If your blade gets dull or snaps a tip because you went cheap you will pay tons more in lost productivity and scrap vinyl than you saved in blades.

Buy the best you can.

Clean cut used to give a discount to signs 101 folks. Doesn't matter though they last and cut great and the service and price are good. All I ask now is for the total don't worry about the price.
