Thomas,

I bought one a couple of months ago. I think the brand is "International" (not IH). I can slide it left or right and it is a 5-foot blade. I can take a pic of it tonight if you like. I think I paid about $225 for it.

Midwest is the OEM for Kioti. If you have trouble finding a dealer that carries Midwest, try a Kioti dealer.

I like the design of the Midwest because it takes no tools and no re-leveling of the blade to offset it. A couple pins and slide it to the right or left.

Thomas,
I just got the 7' model of this 5 ft slider you can call McGrew Equipment directly. I paid about 180 for my blade.

I believe Midwest also makes the rear blades for Corrhier Equipment, who is a sponsor and advertiser on TractorByNet.com.

I picked up their 5' model that also has the tilt feature and it is a great blade. The think I like the most is that you can make all the adjustments to the blade without tools, the Offset, Angle and Tilt settings are all adjustable with PINS instead of bolts, like on some other brands. Even with gloves on, you can adjust their blades.

I did find that if I am going to doing adjustments to the OFFSET feature in the field, I will spray a light oil lubricant onto the channel that the blade pins into to make it easier to slide the blade from side to side when making the adjustments.

I forgot to mention that Corriher sells the blades in various colors so if you are concerned about matching your implement to your tractor they can probably help you out.
