Hello,

Can anyone suggest a good place to send a vintage AO microtome knife
for sharpening.

Thanks

We've mostly changed over to disposable microtome blades,

but a Google search for "microtome blade" and "sharpening OR
sharpener OR sharpened" finds sites like

Thank you for taking the time to do the search and post the results.
I found two sharpening services not to far from me that I can
contact..

I was hoping to get a response from someone who has purchased
sharpening services and could eliminate the uncertainty of making a
random selection.from many advertizers.
