High quality double-cut half-round files made from alloyed high-carbon tool steel and fitted with superbly comfortable British made Holtzapffel pattern walnut handle.
Parallel sided over two thirds of the length and tapered towards the tip, with double cut flat face, single cut rounded face and toothed edges.
For best results, hold the file at both ends and at a slight angle to the work. Advance the file forward and across, with even pressure to bring the maximum number of teeth into contact with the work. Avoid rocking and lift off on the return stroke to avoid dulling the cutting ridges.
To clean your files gently brush out any accumulated debris with a soft wire brush or file card, always going along the ridges rather than across them. To minimise the chances of the file clogging when working with soft metals, apply chalk liberally to the surfaces before you begin.
