Glardon-Vallorbe Barrette Escapement Files - LE3010

Swiss-made Glardon-Vallorbe barrette escapement files (watchmaker’s files) feature a square handle and a tapered barrette profile—only the flat face is cut, leaving a safe edge and top for controlled work against adjacent surfaces. Lengths are measured from the start of the teeth to the end of the cut; the tang/handle is not included.

Key Features

• Precision-cut teeth in multiple grades for shaping to ultra-fine finishing
• Chrome alloy steel, heat-tempered for longevity and crisp cutting
• Lengths of cut measured tip-to-end of teeth (tang not included)
• Made in Switzerland by Glardon-Vallorbe
