This review is from: Nicholson Hand File (Boxed), American Pattern, Double Cut, Half-Round, Coarse, 16" Length (Misc.)

Great file! I bought this for my use in a pipe welding class to prep 12" pipe. After cutting the ends of the pipe to 37 1/2 degree's I needed this file to file the ends of the bevel to a 3/32. This file really takes off the metal fast compared to the single cut files that the college was supplying. The double cut file saves me alot of prep time so I can spend more time welding pipe. 16" makes it great when I am working with 12" diameter pipe.
