Model Forum / General / Models / February 2007Where to buy #1 x-acto knives?
I use x-acto knives in my HS graphics class to cut stencils. Where can I buy #1 knives by the dozen and #16 blades? I thought Home Depot but they had a Stanley for $4. I've been searching Ebay w/o luck. Thanks, Ron rjv...@verizon.net wrote: > I use x-acto knives in my HS graphics class to cut stencils. Where can > I buy #1 knives by the dozen and #16 blades?

The changed to all wooden ships a few years back and had an extensive inventory of tools. Craig Neither one had it. > I use x-acto knives in my HS graphics class to cut stencils.

Our your local drafting supply shop. Great Planes sells them in boxes of 100 and any good hobby shop should carry them too. Bob >> I use x-acto knives in my HS graphics class to cut stencils.

They recently had a very good deal on a pack of 100 #11 blades. Does anyone know if this knife on ebay will take a regular x-acto blade? http://cgi.ebay.com/10-X-ACTO-TYPE-PEN-ART-KNIVES-1-BLADE-PER-PEN-NEW_W0QQitemZ1 20090729619QQihZ002QQcategoryZ20764QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=it em120090729619 Is anyone familiar with this knife? Can a regular x-acto blade be used? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120090729619&ru=http%3A%2F%2F search.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3FMfcISAPICommand%3DGetResult%26ht%3D 1%26shortcut%3D0%26from%3DR41%26query%3D120090729619%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1 Ron Those look like a disposable version. > Is anyone familiar with this knife?

Can a regular x-acto blade be >used? Looks to me like a regular #11 blade, but it does not look like it is replaceable. These look like your average disposable razor to me. Ask the seller. As for your original question, bulk blades are readily availble in packs of 100 blades (#11) but I don't think you will find bulk or discounted handles anywhere. Best you can probalby do there is to see if you can by a quantity at wholesale cost from a kindly shop (try craft stores and woodworking shops as well as hobby shops. Big Box stores like Home Depot and Lowes are probably not your better choices). John Alger IPMS 10906 Charlotte Scale Modelers >>Is anyone familiar with this knife?

[quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >IPMS 10906 >Charlotte Scale Modelers while flimsy and not hard to break, the dollar store 3 handle, 11 blade packs are excellent blades. break a handle, throw it away. (slavage that aluminum!) they are $1.49 here now, but still worth it.

Whatever, for a buck its a great buy. Just the other day, I received a bulk pack of 500 X-Acto-brand, bulk-in-box #11 blades from a local drafting supplies dealer. Can't go wrong with one of them.
