13 ROUND MICROPLANE

by Microplane

Product Description

These tools are ideal for carving, shaving, shaping and forming. They have all the advantages of earlier sheet metal files plus one distinctive advantage, these really work. Constructed from tough, fully hardened stainless steel, MicroPlane tools feature razor sharp teeth that cut 10 times faster and hold a cutting edge 10 times longer than similar sheet metal tools. MicroPlane tools are designed to cut hardwood, softwood, masonite, particle board etc. and other relatively soft materials such as fiberglass and autobody fillers. These unique tools cut cleanly with little effort and leave the worked surface smooth and ready to sand. The round blade comes equipped with its own comfortable wooden handle. It is used, like other round files and rasps, to enlarge holes and shape inside curves, but it cuts much faster and leaves a smoother finish than any similar tool. Comes in 3 sizes. The square blade is designed for general shaping and smoothing where larger blades will not fit. It is also excellent for cutting flat bottomed notches and triangular grooves. Comes in 3 sizes. Wooden handle included.

This review is from: 13 ROUND MICROPLANE (Misc.)

I find myself using the microplane to shape wood and get the piece down to a pattern size easier than a file at times. It's much easier to control in some situations and it seems to be a lot less work having all those sharp blades on a nicely handled tool. For the money I could recommend these to anyone in need.
