What blade buyers need from a knife supplier
When a knife fails, a line stops. Maintenance and purchasing teams need replacements that fit the first time and arrive before the spares run out.
Fits the machine the first time
Made to your print, an OEM part number, or measured from a worn sample, including blades for older or discontinued machines.
Matched sets that stay matched
Granulator, slitter and shear sets ground together so width, height and bevel match blade to blade.
Spares on the shelf
We hold your blades in stock and ship them when you call, or blind drop-ship them to your customers.
One supplier for new and resharpened
The same grinders that finish new blades resharpen them, so reground blades go back to the same spec. Blade sharpening ›
Traceable, reorderable blades
Part numbers, data matrix codes or your private-label logo laser-marked on the blade, so every reorder matches.
