For cutting I like the Olfa snap-off blade cutter. There are 13 cutting edges to each blade. When the blade gets dull, I break off the end. With a 10-pack of blades it’s like having 130 X-acto #11 knives. I found my Olfa cutter at an art store. 9mm Comfort Grip Rubber Reinforced Utility Knife (XA-1): <http://www.olfa.com/utilityknivesdetail.aspx?c=8&id=504> 9mm Snap-off Blade, 10-pack (AB-10B): <http://www.olfa.com/BladesList.aspx?C=33> -- Bill Roberts, Receiver San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railway Co. * * * Notice to travelers * * * People are rapidly learning that the San Antonio & Aransas Pass penetrates the finest health country in America! Thousands testify that the Kerrville branch is by far the most natural sanitarium of the world. This fact is recognized by persons afflicted with lung trouble, asthma, bronchitis, catarrh, etc. It ought to be of great comfort to the health seeker to know that there is hope for him in the mountain resorts of West Texas. Every town and hamlet along this line is noted for its natural curative properties. The air is so pure that animal flesh may hang out in the open air for weeks without decomposition! ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
