History of Morso Mitring Machines

Many have asked us about the age of their Morso. Therefore we have studied the old books of the Morso company. It was very interesting for us, and we found out a lot of things, among others that the first pair of reversible knives ever made was made by Morso in 1933.

To make it easier to find out the age of your Morso we made this list showing the serial numbers of the machines and the year they were manufactured. The list starts in 1911 ( when the first Morso mitring machine was made ) and up to 1998. Should you not find your mitring machine there, it is made after 1998, but please contact us with the serial number, and we will find out how old your machine is.

We hope you will enjoy.
