someone told me that having all the different saw files for different size teeth is not necessary because the corners will wear out before the faces so you do not have to worry about having a file just over twice the length of the back of the tooth and the corners on any slim file are small enough to create deep enough gullets. I wanted to hear what you all had to say about that. Do the corners vary that much from a 6 to a 4 inch file? I have a couple files in the 5 to 7 inch range and cannot discern any differences.
I have read how bad the state of saw files has become and even the good ones do not sound like the last very long. What is the reason that no one uses abrasive files? India files are cheaper than Bahco and Grobet and you could shape the corners to your liking. Diamond needle files are not much more than regular saw files either.
