Hollow or flat ground morso blades,Pros and Cons?

Post by DaveJ »

Hi guys, I found an old post on here from 2005 regarding this I just wondered if anyone has any views, advice, input etc. I dont actually know which method mine are ground by but will ask after this conversation! Mine are always great when they first come back but dont seem to last very long!

Morso specs emphasise hollow ground and that's good enough for me. :D

I can only speak from personal experience..... Hollow ground is the only way, I've had them done flat & that left me with nothing but problems, nearly put me out of business - I couldn't get a decent cut/join. On different sets of blades too btw. So, yes hollow ground I've found is the best way
