KALIM Flat Medium Cut File, Double Cut Teeth, 6'' Length, Made of High Carbon Steel, Hand File Without Handle Suitable for Wood, Metal, Sharpening, etc.

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

It was just the right size. It cut really well. It was really hard. Hard can be brittle. I found out when it fell to a concrete. The pieces work really well but a bit inconvenient.:-) I may reorder another.

The listing shows a measurement, across the file's cutting surface, of 3mm or 0.118". The file I received is 0.142" across the flat, so even wider across the cutting surfaces. For me this made the file un-useable for my project. Otherwise it looks fine but I didn't test it.

Works fine for occasional use. It’s not very large but adequate for my use..

This is exactly what I needed, It has sharp cutting edges on all 4 sides making it versatile in what it can do.The price is better than local hardware stores by 50%.

Works great, great value for the money.

The edges kept steel burrs from getting into my skin. This allows for smoother working surfaces. It's not big and bulky either.

I didn’t notice the size in the description, but expected a bigger one like what was in the photos. Not a huge deal breaker. But I was irritated about it, plus it came in an open package that had been repacked. Obviously used a little. Again, not a big deal. But I was expecting bigger & NEW.
