KS Tools 145mm Needle Files Set (12 Pieces)

Good set of Swiss files

Top product

A very neat set of tools for the price. Slightly coarse if you want a fine finish, but sharp and excellent at shaping up ready for the final finishing. They are long enough to give a good working area - again, handy for fast removal of material - without sacrificing precision. The general standard of finish is better than many of the cheap brands, for example the triangle has reasonably sharp corners and no nasty sticky-out tangs. My only niggle is that the oval is not very oval, it is too close to the round - on the other hand there is a nice double-rounded example which fills most of the gap. I use them on plastics, so I cannot comment on whether they would survive the soft metals used for jewellery and suchlike. All in all, absolutely top value.

Bought these to clean up some burrs in hard to reach areas. They've also proved useful for filing 3D printed parts.They seem to be holding up well and file smoothly. I've not tried using them on anything harder than aluminum.

No complaints, very good, my old ones were so blunt these glide and file brilliantly

Files have handles so comfortable in the hand, easy to hold.

Very good quality and nice price.They come handy when working with plastics and aluminium for working with electronics fit and finish.They are also very nice for prototyping.I wouldn't recomend for the hardest of metals though.They are resistant but don't expect them to last forever because they are small scale files. The wear rate greatly depends on what you use it for.I would replace a kit of these by a kit of these because they always got the job done fast when I needed them.

lots of different shapes works well in various places
