Andy,

  

 Any chance you might have the sku# for the knife.  I am in   Canada, and when I inquired about the " laminate " type knife, they all gave me  the funny look, and responded that since they knew nothing about it, most  probably it wasen't available in Canada.

  

 regards

At least you can get it at Home Depot in Canada. Its not available from any mass market retailer here in the USA.

The numbers below refer to the Olfa Series 800 knife, and if you look  closely at the original posting, it referred to a different knife, one with a  carbide blade, that is not available on the Olfa model.

  

 At the time, it was mentioned in another responce that although it looked  like the above Olfa, it was a different model.

  

 regards

 Bob

 I have just looked at my knife and on the handle it  reads ' OLFA P-CUTTER 800 Special Tungsten Steel Blade'.

  

 As I managed to  get one in the UK, should be  ok in North America, suggest you go onto the Olfa website and get a local  stockist.

  

 It is an amazing too I have cut nearly all of my  aluminium sheets and am still on the first blade so the 25 spare blades should  be ok for another 20 odd aircraft!

  

 Without this knife (and Dave Clay's brake) I would  really have struggled.

  

 Hope this helps

The P800 is the model you need. I got mine at www.olfablades.com

Malcolm,

  

 I am happy to hear that you were able to get that much mileage out of  your blade.  As for myself, I have the exact same knife/blade  combo.  However not wanting to argue the fact, but when I got through  making 5 or 6 swipes on 12' lengths of aluminum, and after having cut 6, 12'  sections, the blade ( Special Tungsten Steel ) it showed wear, and  needed replacement.  When a new blade was finally installed, it was if I  had a brand new knife.

  

 The original post mentioned a blade with a " carbide insert " so that is  why I was willing to go the extra mile with a second cutter, thinking that it  might be even better then the first.

  

 Thank's for your input, and fly safe

  

 regards
