5.0 out of 5 stars Crisp edge, bargain price, fine grit, April 9, 2009

This review is from: SE 5 pc. Professional Diamond File Set (180 Grit) (Misc.)

The set includes a flat plate, an equilateral triangular prism, an acute triangular prisim, a 30% circular chord, and a thin rod. All are tapered for about 2 inches to the tip.

The edges are moderately crisp and will score ceramic tiles quickly via edge or tip. These respond well to having a little bit of lubricant which helps move the very fine dust away from the workpiece.

These files have red, vinyl covers on the handles. The vinyl sticks to the vinyl holder. A little annoying at first, but it keeps the files from poking through or sliding out.

The handles are very stiff and durable. Even with my big hands they held up without flexing.

None of these score an extremely fine line, but all are worth much more than the price asked. The price is a great bargain.

Once you get really good, you might want a shorter taper with a sharper tip, or other shapes, or duplicates of your favorite shape. (The acute prism comes in very handy for scoring a long, deep line.)

I highly recommend this for your first set, extra sets, bench set, gift set, etc.

Used it on every piece of chipped glassware I could find and did the job well and fast. Just remember to wash the glassware after as it is covered with micro shards of glass. Used the half round file as it makes a smoother surface than the full round!
