Have you calculated how many slides or blocks your techs produce per box ofblades?  AccuEdge blades do seem to be pricey but I've always gone throughmore of most of the other kinds...price per slide was uniformly better withlow-profile AccuEdge and a thicker one like Sturkey for bone and hardtissue. Also consider the frustration factor.  I don't care HOW much the blades cost=0Awhen I'm trying to get 40 slides off a hair-thin prostate biopsy!  Infairness, it takes a couple of days with a new blade to get used to thedifferences.  Having both types around during a new blade trial reduces the=0Afear factor and keeps people's minds a little more receptive to the changes. Some labs stock three or four different types--each tech picks what worksfor them and is responsible to keep the order clerk informed of when theyneed more.
