Diamond rhombic file with coarse #200 grit (diamond shaped) for quick sharpening of your saws and cutting discs, it will also allow you to restore the thread of your broken scissors or knives.
The angle of the file allows it to fit into the finest teeth. However, we consider filing to be suitable for relatively coarse teeth (<10 teeth per inch) such as coarse-toothed pruning saws, tree saws or coarse-toothed European handsaws.
Sharpening Japanese saw teeth is long and tedious (often 3 angles must be taken on each tooth), the finer the teeth, the more complicated it becomes. Patience is the mother of all virtues !
Making your blade last is a good gesture for the planet, but if you don't have the experience, we recommend that you simply change the blade.
Stronger than a whetstone, very durable, does not require regular resharpening, does not require water or pre-soaking unlike whetstones.
