Japanese Flat File Iwasaki 90mm x 16mm

The Iwasaki Japanese file is a high-quality woodworking tool designed for finishing tasks in wood. It enables exceptionally fast material removal without the need for frequent cleaning. Its chip-breaking tooth design prevents clogging. The unique milling on the file's teeth leaves a smooth wood surface comparable to 280-grit sandpaper.

This tool is ideal for sculptors, woodworkers, instrument makers, toy makers, and more.
While traditional rasps produce sawdust and files create fine dust, Iwasaki tools produce miniature shavings. Similar to a rasp, the Iwasaki file removes material very quickly, but the resulting surface is significantly smoother and requires only minimal sanding for finishing.

The secret of Iwasaki files lies in their manufacturing process, featuring uniquely shaped teeth. Additionally, diagonal grooves shift the teeth, and each tooth acts as a miniature chip breaker, minimizing clogging.
