Checkering files

[panch0]

Hello fellas its me again with another question. I have found some checkering files on line for about 39-45 bucks. What brand and are there any less expensive ones out there? Thanks again!

I'd check Midway.com and Brownells.com for gunsmithing files...

I have a swiss made Grobet 20 LPI from Brownells. I think it was about 30 bucks with the business discount. I have a friend who is a well respected gunsmith, he reccomended this brand. So far I have used it on 4 D-2 blades. Keep it clean and it cuts great.

Thanks guys! I ran into all those names while searching on google.

Check Jantz I think they carry them as well. IIRC they were somewhere around 30 bucks or so as well

Thanks! Haha...I'd send you my old oven, but i think it would be dust and crumpled metal by the time it got to you. It's not, how do you say...robust.
