Need to make some Christmas gifts and looking for a source for pie server blades. Have done searches on the internet and the lathe supply catalogs and not found what I need. Am looking for the triangular shaped blade with the bend in the blade. Also need the tang to glue into the handle I am turning. If anybody knows a source for these please let me know.

thanks - Ted
 
Several years ago, a kid was buying ice cream scoops at retail and breaking off the original handles to replace them with hand turned wooden ones. You could try someplace like WalMart and see if they have something you could use and just replace the handle.
I don't know of anyone who is offering them at wholesale, as you need them.
 
I couldn't find any either so I did as George suggested. I got a couple of pretty good ones from kitchen utensil store. Took the handles off and turned my own. Didn't come out to bad.

Lee Valley has a very nice one for about $8. The handle will easily come off. Search for "pie" in the item search box.
 
Yes - I have looked at those and they are not pie servers. They are not triangular in shape and don't have the bend in the blade. I would consider them more of a cake server. - Ted
