Also I don't remember having ever used a file

will probably not have handles. Who makes an
after market handle
that stays on. Maybe I should buy the cheapest
wooden ones &
epoxy them in place. I assume that would work.
No?


Thanks for any info, JD

Back to my original post, Are there any preferences for Simonds vs.
Nicholson or anyother brand? I hope that's not a troll question like
Fords or Chevys.
Thanks, JD
