Files was Re: Chisels: pointed vs flat?
Quoted text begins.Hmm - as I was filing away this afternoon I wondered if it would be possible
to get a file - and rasps re-picked. I've heard that, I think Tiranti,
would do it but don't anymore - if I asked a blacksmith Jerry do you think
they'd either laugh or quote a high price?
End of quote.
Both. He'd laugh then agree to do it in exchange for your house and car.
He'd also say something about how folks resharpen files through the use of
hydrochloirc acid, adding that he does NOT recommend anyone doing so. Then
he'd suggest you contact Boggs Tool Processing & File Sharpening Co., 14100
Orange Ave, Paramount, CA 90723, 800-547-5244, who professionally resharpen
files. =) They used to offer new customers a deal to sharpen 2 files free
if they mentioned their ad in The Anvil's Ring (blacksmithing magazine), but
that was 2 years ago.
