M.A.S. Weapons
MAS had the lowest price for schlager blades that I've found. They are name-brand France Lames, though, the same as many other dealers carry. I've heard that there are only four schlager blade manufacturers altogether.
I have their Black Tulip dagger blade, and have gotten schlager blades from them twice.

Lots of local SCA people have bought equipment from Scottie. Seems to be a well-recommended supplier.
Here's an e-mail message quote:
" I am selling any of the standard ovals for $80.00 and the standard diamonds
when I have them for $103.16" [Feb 18, 1998]
" My prices are higher than others. This I know.
However, unlike the others I am on the field and therefore take a lot longer
making sure each and every blade fits within a very strict set of criteria.
This results in the higher price, but much happier customers.
Malcolm"
Swords-n-stuff
Just seems to sell complete weapons bu t they had an interesting quote in their on-line catalog.
"About the schlaeger - Developed by France Lames for SCA combat and stage combat, the oval cross-section blade has the look, feel and "clang" of 18th century rapier blades. The schlaeger has a rounded tip for safety and is more durable than the sport fencing blades."
