These tools are so incredibly handy when fine tuning something made of wood. Everyone should have one. I have no idea where I got the idea to make it, but I think someone else must have thought of it before me, not sure tho. At the time the file was brand new Nicholson, Axe. With fine and medium cuts. As brian can attest, by using it as a scraper you can remove a layer of wood so thin you can see thru, just only as wide as the blade. I have used and abused this thing for most of my carrier and its stood the test of time.
