Integrated-Handle Rectangular Files
Straight
Double Cut
Single Cut
Tapered
No need for a separate handle—these files have one built in. The black-oxide finish resists rust and clogging.
Double Cut—Surface has two sets of diagonal teeth and is often used with heavier pressure than single cut for rapid material removal.
Single Cut—Surface has one set of diagonal teeth and is often used with light pressure to slowly remove material and sharpen tool-cutting surfaces.
Edges with no teeth protect adjacent surfaces when filing.
