I used to get mine sharpened by Lion. They sharpenthen on a very good grinding machine with a proper liquid cooland to keep the blade nice and cool. They sharpened one set of blades that lasted about 3 years before they needs to be re-sharpned.

Ashworth & Thompson have always provided a hollow-grinding service for Morso blades as well :clap:
