    ive been using an online art store for my blades etc but just last week switched to William Smith after i recievd a new catalogue of tools they now sell. bought various bits and bobs but basically OLFA knives and blades, swan morton knives and blades.

    Grafityp may do them also because i know they do the swan morton ones.

    Most window film suppliers stock them.
    Bonwyke do.
    You may be interested that many tint installers have found the "NT Red Dot" better than olfa. Advantages are; Smaller increments of movement, Fully locking blade, Blade can be turned for left handed. I have both olfa & red dot and always go back to the red dot for ease of handling.

    I havent heard of that one before mate so i did a quick Google on it.
    It actually looks like the same knife i use, but from OLFA.
    I have attached the OLFA one i use, the only difference i see is the angle of the blade, but to be honest, i prefer having more of a point.
