Works well, cuts depth is shallower than I expected.

I use this for thumb jimping on my handmade knives. It's great, I'd buy it again and again but don't think I'll have to. I put a medium wood handle on it and it feels perfect. Previously I'd used my bandsaw to do jimping but it was never perfect, this checkering file makes clean parallel lines every time. The only downside is once it bottoms out it will leave a tiny parallel scratch on either side of the grooves. Nothing some hand sanding can't remedy though.

Cuts very quickly into unhardened 01 tool steel. Great little file to have in the shop.Edited 2/3/18: After using this file twice, i noticed that a tooth has broken off of the edge of the file. Still works but it's something to consider.

We use this in our shop to put 'jimping' on the spine of the knives we make. Works well for that purpose. Would buy again.

The file is awesome. I wish it was wider but it is a nice nice file. It gives you lines per inch but isn’t an inch wide so it is a little confusing. A 1” file would be great. It makes clean symmetrical and aesthetic lines easily in wood and steel.
