Glardon-Vallorbe Three Square Precision Files - LP1360

A three square file reaches into interior angles, notches and V-shaped grooves, where a flat or half-round profile cannot follow the corner. Glardon-Vallorbe three square precision files are tapered and cut to the point for exactly that work. Manufactured in Switzerland to precise production standards using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship, they are made from the finest heat-tempered chrome alloy steel and deliver superior performance on all metals, with the feel, action and balance demanded by professional jewelers, metalsmiths and watchmakers. They were formerly distributed by Grobet USA under the brand name Grobet Swiss.
