Description
A pillar extra slim file trues a flat surface where a full-width file will not fit, such as a narrow slot or the space between two close walls. It is parallel in width and tapered in thickness, so it files perfectly flat. The Pillar Extra Slim 2 Sides Cut carries double-cut teeth on the top and bottom faces, with one edge left safe (no cut). Each file is supplied as a tang only, with no handle, and measurements are given at the thickest point of the file.
Glardon-Vallorbe Swiss Made Precision Files are the world's standard for quality and performance. Manufactured to precise production standards using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship, these files deliver superior performance on all metals. They are made of the finest heat-tempered, chrome alloy steel and offer the feel, action, and balance desired by true craftsmen. They were formerly distributed by Grobet USA under the Grobet Swiss label.

Notes
- File length is measured from the point where the teeth begin to the end of the file; the tang is not included. A 6" file, for example, measures roughly 8-1/2" from tip to the end of the tang.
- Measurements given for file dimensions are taken at the thickest point of the file.
- Higher cut numbers indicate finer teeth: 00 is the coarsest and 6 is the finest.
