Grobet USA Italian Made Crossing Needle Files

Crossing files are half round on two sides with one side having a larger radius than the other.  Tapered in width and thickness.  Cut and usable to the point. Used primarily for filing interior curved surfaces. The double radius makes possible the filing at the junction of two curved surfaces. 


Starting in 2015 Grobet Needle Files are no longer made in Switzerland but are made in Italy.  Looking for the original Grobet Swiss Made files?
