About 25 years ago I had purchased a simple set of files from Sears. They were basic files; triangular, half-round, rasp and flat. They had no handles, i.e., they were sold with a bare tang, and somewhere along the line I carved some crude wooden handles for them. The other day I was rooting around in my toolbox for some tool and ran across them. I thought to myself "Dang, these are pretty old, rusty, and the handles have fallen off...time for some decent files." I wanted a set that wasn't crazy expensive, had all of the basic shapes, and had some decent handles. I work with various metals and woods for my hobbies, so I needed a basic file set as well as a rasp file set. It would be nice if they all matched, too. I did a lot of research on Amazon, only to find that some file sets did not have all of the shapes, were exorbitantly expensive, had handles that came off in your hand (or didn't have handles to start with), or had generally poor reviews. I came across the Woodstock files and they seemed to fill the bill. I purchased both the Woodstock D3112 6-Piece File Set with Rubber Handles and the Woodstock D3113 3-Piece Wood Rasp Set with Rubber Handles at the same time. The files arrived two days after purchase. They were well-packed and packaged. I inspected all of the files; all appeared to be in perfect condition with no wear or tear, not any shipping damage. The standard file set includes Round, Square, Triangular, Flat, Half-Round, and Tapered files. The Rasp file set includes Round, Half-Round and Flat rasps. The rubber handles are very comfortable and feel good in the hand. You can get a nice grip and maintain very good control over the file. The balance of each file is good. Some folks have mentioned that the handles came off when they were used, but I have yet to experience that in the four months that I have used them on an every-other-day basis. The metal of the files appears to be cast steel and is of average to good quality; they should last a long time as long as you don't stand on them or use them as a pry bar. Each of the non-rasp files are double-cut to about bastard cut or second-cut depth. The rasp files have teeth that are cut fairly deep, and some appear to be haphazardly placed. Mind you that's not really a bad thing, as all you care about is that it quickly removes material in the area that you are filing. You can smooth out any imperfections with a finer file, then some gentle sanding. I use all of these files primarily for woodworking and so far they have performed their tasks quite well with no visible wear. They do not clog easily, and when they do a brass wire brush makes quick work of any clogs. All-in-all I am quite pleased with both sets of Woodstock files and would recommend them. Thanks Woodstock!
