Title: Rarely Use Files Anymore But...
Product review: These are good solid files. They must be much harder metal than other files I have used, because they cut faster. When I can though I use my chain grinder to sharpen chains much more quickly. Hand filing a bunch of chains for a 27" bar takes too long for me! Nevertheless, it is always a good idea to have a file or two in your box just in case. Every once in a while a saw will find a piece of nail or fencing in the wood, and without a way to sharpen your chain, you are done. When that happens, or I just want to "touch up" a chain, I have used these files with great success.Oregon makes some of the best chainsaw components and accessories so it is no surprise to me how well they work. If you need a file that will last a long time and perhaps get you out of a jam, go with these. The price is great for what you get in return. Also would be a good idea to order a bastard mill file or the like to use on rakers as needed.
