You sure can't beat an old AO!

The old Leitz microtomes with the wheel on the front were awesome too.

Ahhh memories.

I've always been a fan of the Leica microtomes, I've used all kinds, from
the Leica RM 2025 Microtome to the Leica RM 2265.  A good non-automated
version is the RM 2235.  I've also used the Microm (thermo-fisher-shandon)
HM325S which work well.  The Sakura Accucut SRM is manufactured by Leica, I
believe it is equivalent to the RM2025.  I however have never used the Leica
2125.  I've always had good service from them, especially if you have a
service contract.  Good luck!

  Hi,
 Our small lab is looking for some advise on what microtome to replace 
 a fairly new Leica RM2235 with. We have been looking at the Sakura SRM 
 200 and the Leica 2125. We are looking for reliability and have net 
 gotten it from the RM2235. Is anyone using either of these that would 
 be willing to offer suggestions?

2011-07-12 Thread Rathborne, Toni
We have the 2235 and some 2135's, and have been satisfied with all of them. 
Just the usual wear and tear problems seen over time. Do you have Leica service 
your current microtome? Is it always the same problem? Most service companies 
will offer a 30 day guarantee on their work.

We have tried the Leicas thru the years and found that post 2030's that our 
arms were not long enough to turn the handwheel without completely 
straightening our elbows. This led to soreness in our elbows. Their microtomes 
kept getting larger and larger with the handwheel further back. The 2125 solves

 Subject: [Histonet] What is a great manual mirotome
 
 Hi,
 Our small lab is looking for some advise on what microtome to replace 
 a fairly new Leica RM2235 with. We have been looking at the Sakura SRM 
 200 and the Leica 2125. We are looking for reliability and have net 
 gotten it from the RM2235. Is anyone using either of these that would 
 be willing to offer suggestions?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Scott Hendricksen HT (ASCP)

I've always been a fan of the Leica microtomes, I've used all kinds, from the 
Leica RM 2025 Microtome to the Leica RM 2265.  A good non-automated version is 
the RM 2235.  I've also used the Microm (thermo-fisher-shandon) HM325S which 
work well.  The Sakura Accucut SRM is manufactured by Leica, I believe it is 
equivalent to the RM2025.  I however have never used the Leica 2125.  I've 
always had good service from them, especially if you have a service contract.  
Good luck!

I paid $30.00 for my  pre-owned Spencer 820.  Liked it so well I bought two.  
It has served as a virtually foolproof and indestructible workhorse for 22 
years.  I have produced, literally more than a tone of slides with it.
