Leica EM KMR3
Balanced-break Glass Knife Maker
The First True Balanced-break Knife Maker
Since the introduction of the world’s fi rst glass knife maker in
1962, Leica Microsystems has continuously refi ned the technique
of high-precision glass knife making. Central to the design of the

instrument’s mechanical components to produce a 100% balanced break of the glass. This technical precision produces an
outstanding, high-quality knife edge. In addition, the instrument is
ergonomically-designed to provide comfort and ease of use.
From students and routine users, through experienced cryoultramicrotomists, the new Leica EM KMR3 is the unsurpassed
instrument of choice for producing high-end glass knives.
