CMT shaper cutterhead knives with limiters source?

[stvrowe]

I have a shaper cutterhead that happens to accept 40mm CMT knives.  The only problem is that my cutterhead also uses limiters.  While I can find plenty of US sellers that sell the CMT knives (including dealers that participate on this forum), I cannot find anyone that also sells the matching limiters.  Does anyone know of a stocking supplier for CMT limiters in the US?
Thanks,
Steve

Steve:

I just spoke to one of the Tech's at CMT. They don't even stock them here but can get them from Europe.

Thank you Tom.  The knives I want are 690.090 and the limiters are 691.090.  Do you have any idea what is the lead time?  I just canceled an order this morning from the other supplier as I have been waiting for over 30 days with no estimate of delivery.

I would love to incorporate these with a Festool order that I am working up now.

It generally takes 2-4 weeks for CMT USA to get something from Italy for me. It depends on where we are in their ordering cycle. I can call and ask if you'd like...

Yes - please do.

I finally got through to the right person, Steve...

The knives are in stock here and the safety limiters are in stock in Italy. That means that getting the limiters would take about 2-4 weeks, likely about 3 weeks if ordered in the next couple of days.
