6' Vallorbe 1/2 Round Rasp RA3552 6-7
Product Description
Vallorbe® make a bewildering array of files for metalworking and they also make a bewildering array of rasps for woodworking, enough to confuse the average brain (yes, worse than the French in our humble opinion). Anyway, whilst not quite reaching the magic of Auriou Toolworks, their premium machine made rasps are extremely good tools. The regularity of tooth height and density is very good.
Cut is expressed as a number. A low number means more aggressive/faster stock removal and a rougher surface finish. The higher numbers equate to less aggressive/slower stock removal and a smoother surface finish. Vallorbe Cuts 5 to 7 are considered ideal for woodworking as a compromise trade off between speed and smoothness.
Usines Metallurgiques de Vallorbe was founded in 1899 and is located in Switzerland. Vallorbe® has over 100 years of technical expertise making files and rasps used in industries ranging from watchmaking to blacksmithing and woodworking. They make a fine range of tools under various trade marks including, Vallorbe, Glardon & Grobet.
