morso blade sharpening

Post by Steve1958 »

Can anybody recommend a good place to send off my Morso blades for sharpening?

Looking for a good job, one of the blades has a very small chip in it which will need to be ground out

Thanks

You really need someone one with a proper Morso hollow ground machine. My recommendation would probably have to be Mainline. :D You will have to send them away but you will know that they will come back very sharp.

Lion also have a post away service. Beware extra costs for damage though, but it will be done properly. https://www.lionpic.co.uk/guillotine-blade-sharpening/

I use Lion as well. The last set of blades sharpened by lion have been on my machine for more than a year and are still sharp. They use liquid coolant while grinding the blades sharp and I assume that this explains how long my blades have lasted. BTW, I cut quite a lot of oak moulding too!
