Hand Files

Double cut, parallel diagonal rows. Better suited for jobs that require a smooth and accurate finish. This file can be used where a cut edge would damage the work.

Mill Files

Single cut on sides and edges. Mill files can be used on tools where fast metal removal is required, such as sharpening mill saws, circular saws, axes, hoes, spades, knives and agricultural equipment

Flat Files

Double cut, single cut on edges. This file is used for removing wood or metal at a fast rate. Tapered in width and thickness. Most popular of all general purpose files.

Three Square

Double cut files which have fairly sharp corners that are slightly set and cut. Three Square files are triangular in cross-sections, like tapers, and used for filing taps and all types of cutters.

Square Files

Double cut, tapers toward the point with four equal sides. Useful for slots,
key ways, rectangular as well as square holes and surface work.

Half Round

Both double and single cut. Double cut to remove material quickly and single cut for smoother filing. The half round file can be used for both concave and flat surfaces, due to it being flat on one side and rounded on the other. On the concave surfaces, the file is used with a rolling motion to prevent grooving the work.

Round

The round file is extensively used to open up holes. It is also valuable for filling concave surfaces. Like the half round file, it should be used with a turning motion to prevent grooving the work.

Wundacut

A versatile flat file for fast removal
of metals, such as aluminum, bronze, cast iron, malleable iron and annealed carbon steel.

Long Angle Lathe File

Single cut with both edges safe, and taper toward the point in width. The Long Angle Lathe is primarily used for lathe work and bench filing. The teeth are designed on a "long angle" to provide free cutting and rapid filing while leaving a smooth finish.

Farmers Own Handy File

With handle for sharping agricultural implements (reaper knives, etc.)

Wood Rasps

For woodworkers, plumbers, and wheelwrights.

Tanged Horse Rasps

Single cut on edges, a rectagular shaped rasp with teeth on one side and file teeth on the other.
