This microtome is entirely unique in construction, and its extreme rigidity 
and convenience for work, together with the fact that on it any kind of material 
embedded by any process desired can be cut with precision, makes it pre-emi- 
nently the laboratory microtome of to-day. 
It is especially useful for fine embryological work. In this microtome the 
knife is rigidly clamped immovably at both ends, and the object- carrier moves 
towards the knife. 
The knife supplied with the microtome is of the finest quality, exactness and 
perfection of finish. They are made in our own workshops, and we have had to 
construct special machinery for their manufacture. They are the acme of perfec- 
tion in microtome knife manufacture.
