Hi Guys,
I have a bunch of usable vintage hand files, but was missing a few different sizes / types. Plus, a lot of my files were missing wood handles. Hence, I was browsing for vintage files on Ebay when I stumbled upon this listing:
Once again, the lure of a super deal on quality vintage tools forced ;-) me to buy these. $20!#! Anyways, I just received these files today. Omg. I am stoked. I think these types are rare (but definitely can be wrong). They definitely are unusual. One file is smooth on the front and back, and only the side edges have file cutting on it. On one of the "S" shaped files, only one side of the top and bottom are for cutting. Anyways, I can't list everything about these files, but will just post some pictures.
I am hoping you guys can tell me what applications these files would most typically be used for.
To be quite honest, these seem so new for whatever age they are that I almost don't want to use them and ruin how pristine they seem, lol.
Thanks
Susan
