Precision Files, Habilis Files - with Table of Cuts

The precicion files made by VALLORBE GROBET have been developed along the needs of the watch makers industry in Switzerland. Today they set the standard for quality files. They are not only suited for metal work, but for fine woodworking too. The swiss files sold in Germany have the label Fr. Dick. The hardness is 66 - 67 HRC.

Habilis files are files with built-in handle. The cutting length is 100 mm (4 in.). These are precision files for those "in-between" jobs too big for needle files and too small for regular files. Once you have them in your shop, you will discover a surprisingly number of uses. You find them on the bottom of this page.

All files are delivered without handle! File handles you will find here!
