    Vallorbe® Premium Rasps are the top-of-the-line. A good rasp is a must-have for every woodworker and with care will last a long time, but a truly exceptional rasp…well, that’s a bit different. These machine made wonders are as close to hand stitched rasps as can be made, and they sport a density of sharp teeth that cheap rasps could only wish for! Vallorbe® premium rasps almost do the work for you and will last a lifetime with a little care.

    General Rasp Information: Cut is expressed as a number. The
    smaller the number the more aggressive/faster material is removed and the rougher
    the exposed surface. The larger the number the less aggressive/slower material
    is removed and the smoother the exposed surface. #5 and #6 are consider ideal
    for woodworking as a compromise to offer a quick cutting action but leaving a
    smooth surface. Also, the longer/larger a tool is the larger the cutting
    surface of the tool and the more pressure that can be brought to bear on the
    working surface making larger tools the tool of choice for faster stock
    removal.



    This 8" rasp is 19.3mm wide (widest point) x 4.5mm thick (thickest point), with a 200mm-long, broad flat cutting surface with non-cutting sides.
