Bahco 4-186-04-2-2 Triangular Saw File with Handle 100 x 6.0 mm Cut 2

Sharpening saw teeth by hand demands a file that fits the tooth geometry and removes material efficiently without clogging. The Bahco 4-186-04-2-2 triangular saw file with handle is made for exactly that task, with a tapered three-sided profile that reaches into the gullet of most hand saws and a second cut that balances stock removal with a smooth finish.

Who is it for

This file suits woodworkers, carpenters, and saw doctors who maintain their own hand saws. It is also useful for sharpening certain pruning saws and other toothed blades where a triangular section matches the tooth form. The included handle makes it ready to use straight from the pack.

Tips

Match the file to the tooth pitch of your saw: the file should fill about two-thirds of the tooth gullet. Use smooth, even strokes and lift the file on the return to avoid dulling the teeth. Clean the file with a file card when it loads up with swarf.
