Grobet Hand Files are similar in profile to equalling files, with four parallel sides. But unlike equalling files, hand files have a slightly tapered thickness and are cut on only three sides, leaving one safe edge. The top and bottom surfaces are double cut, while the side is single cut. These files are extremely versatile and have a wide variety of uses for jewelers and metalsmiths.
The lengths listed in the table below are the lengths of the cut portions of the files.
