I am now making replacement shutter blades and springs which fit the Minox  C, LX, TLX, CLX or AX models. A set consists of a pair of shutter blades and 2 springs. These parts are not Original Minox Equipment, but parts I have had made because OEM parts are not readily available. The blades are an improved design over the Minox blade, made from Hardened Stainless Steel and do not break the way the Minox brand blades do. Their design is based upon the latest Minox design. The price for one set is $30 plus shipping anywhere in the world.

Important Note: One of the common reasons for the failure of the shutter blades is if they become contaminated with lubricant which eventually gets gummy and causes the blades to stick to each other or the guide they ride in.  These shutter blades are designed to run dry.  All shutter blades should be degreased before installing, whether you are re-using old blades or using brand new ones.  Even fingerprint oils can be a problem, so make sure they are completely clean before installing them.  NEVER apply any sort of lubricant to the blades, NEVER!  The shutterbug article which I have provided a link to below incorrectly says to use grease on the blades...don't do it.
