The Iwasaki Half Round Extremely Fine Curved File delivers the ultimate surface refinement through its curved profile and ultra-fine teeth that create microscopic shavings for near-finish quality surfaces. This precision Japanese file features revolutionary mini-chipbreaker teeth on the convex side only, producing the smoothest possible curved surfaces while maintaining the material removal efficiency that makes Iwasaki files legendary.

Key Features:

  • Extremely fine cut for superior surface finish
  • Curved half-round profile for organic shaping
  • Teeth on convex side only
  • Mini-chipbreaker tooth design
  • Creates ultra-fine shavings, not dust
  • Pull-stroke cutting action
  • Safe edges protect adjacent surfaces
  • Textured rubber grip handle
  • Works on wood, bamboo, OSB, MDF, plastics, and resins
  • Made in Japan

Specifications:

  • Overall length: 7⅞ inches
  • Cutting length: 4 inches
  • Width: 3/8 inch
  • Thickness: 1/8 inch
  • Cut type: Extremely Fine
  • Cutting direction: Pull stroke
  • Tooth configuration: Convex side only
  • Edge type: Safe (no teeth)

Ideal for:

  • Final surface refinement
  • Musical instrument makers
  • Fine furniture finishers
  • Curved detail work
  • Sculptors and carvers
  • Marquetry specialists
  • Model makers
  • Precision craftspeople

Benefits:

  • Near-finish surface quality minimizes sanding
  • Curved profile creates flowing organic shapes
  • Pull stroke provides exceptional control
  • Narrow width excels in detailed areas
  • Chip ejection prevents clogging
  • Safe edges enable precise corner work
  • Thin profile flexes for varying curves
  • Comfortable grip ensures steady control

Ultimate Curved Surface Refinement: The extremely fine cut combined with the curved half-round profile makes this file the final word in curved surface perfection. Each microscopic tooth acts as a tiny plane with its own chipbreaker, lifting ultra-fine shavings so small they appear almost dust-like, yet the fundamental cutting action remains a clean shear rather than abrasion. This produces curved surfaces with exceptional smoothness that typically requires progressing through multiple grits of sandpaper to achieve. The narrow 3/8-inch width and curved profile make this particularly valuable for refining concave surfaces, smoothing the inside curves of carved details, or bringing compound curves to perfection. The pull-stroke cutting action provides the precise control essential for this level of refinement, allowing you to feel exactly how the surface is developing with each deliberate stroke.

Precision Engineering for Demanding Work: The 4-inch cutting length on the 7⅞-inch body provides optimal control for delicate finishing work, while the cushioned rubber grip ensures comfort during the light, controlled strokes that extremely fine work demands. The thin 1/8-inch profile allows the file to flex slightly, conforming to gentle curves and ensuring consistent contact across the entire cutting surface. The teeth on the convex side only means you can use the flat back as a reference surface, ensuring you don't inadvertently alter adjacent areas while refining specific curves. Whether you're bringing a guitar's curved surfaces to perfection, refining the flowing lines of sculptural work, or achieving the mirror-smooth finish required on visible curved edges, this extremely fine curved file delivers the exceptional quality that separates masterwork from merely good craftsmanship.
