Spiral Cutter Blade Replacement

We're a busy sawmill who also profile cladding boards from our timber. We needed to source replacement spiral cutters for our Leitz blocks. Norman's knowledge on the exact replacement blades (of which there are plenty of incorrect options out there), was first class. He was also able to mobilise them to us within a couple of days, not weeks. First class service, good pricing, great knowledge and quick delivery. What's not to like.

I had recently had my blades sharpened…

I had recently had my blades sharpened by another company in Glasgow I have used for decades and the blades were poor and blunt a second time. As a busy tradesman who needs quality finishes on my products I was desperate to find an alternative ,I found Leitz tooling and eventually spoke to Norrie ,He invited me over and showed me round his amazing factory, I left my blades with him and he returned them all sharpened with repairs to some, which is also great, the cut off them is immaculate ,Tradespersons need this quality service, a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for and the additional cost far outweighs the finish and sharpening intervals required. Bit gutted as my competition may find this review and also use them , but hey ho ,fairs fair! Thanks the Leitz team! Paul. PHI LTD

Hi Andy, thanks for the review. We understand your frustration. Unfortunately this shipment got caught up in customs when entering the country. We've taken your feedback on board and u[dated our delivery times on an itemised level - including stock coming from Germany. Hopefully this helps avoid the same disappointment in the future. All the best, Ben.

Thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration with the delivery time. We sincerely apologise for the delay you experienced.

We want to explain that our products are manufactured in Germany, and unfortunately, since Brexit, we've encountered increased lead times for both manufacturing and shipping.
We are actively working to mitigate these delays and explore options to improve our delivery process, Although the tools were delivered within the stated 10 working day period, with the order being dispatched after 8 days.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate these new logistical challenges.
We are committed to providing you with the best possible service and are continuously striving to improve our efficiency.

We value your business and hope to serve you better in the future.

We recently had the opportunity to use Leitz services, and we are extremely satisfied with the experience. The team and Andy in particular were professional, attentive, and went above and beyond to meet our needs. From start to finish, the process was smooth and well-organized. They took the time to understand our requirements and machining techniques and provided excellent recommendations. The attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction were evident throughout.

Overall, we have had a great experience and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for quality, reliability and sound advice.

We have been dealing with Leitz Glasgow workshop for well over 10 years now. We simply wouldn't look anywhere else to have our blades sharpened.

Specified tool selection guidance & fantastic quality

After seeing a lot of marketing online suggesting Leitz and having a couple contractors we know that use Leitz and recommended them to us. We decided to give it a try, I found the website really useful and specific to help finding the right tools needed to order for my boss. Really straight forward website and very modernised. Plenty of information on the products to ensure you find exactly what you need. And from what my manager has said, he is super happy with the tool quality and the blade spec from what he has previously used and would happily pay for the quality over quantity going forward.
