I guess so. Here in Australia we've been metric for more than 40 years but most stores can cope with you or mm pitch. OTOH I just buy 14 or 18 tpi as needed.

So, are they sold as "1.8-2.5mm pitch blade" or will they look at me like I'm a crazy expat?
I guess maybe it's best to just take a blade to a local shop and point.

Anywhere there's a pitch in tpi, you convert it into millimetres by dividing into 25.4. So a 10 tpi blade corresponds to approximately 2.5mm pitch, 14 tpi to 1.8.?
Length is usually specified in millimetres?

I was just thinking, as we'll be moving to metric-land later this year, what do I ask for when I shop for blades?? As in, what's the metric size?? Also, I use 10-14 tpi, is there a metric equivalent (not conversion, but actual number they use)?
