Product Specification

6" HALF-ROUND FILE (BASTARD CUT)

Benchmark Abrasives 6" Half-Round File (Bastard Cut) has a half-round shape with one round side and one flat side for use on curved and flat surfaces. These metal files are ideal for sharpening mills and circular saws. The bastard cut is a term used to describe the coarseness of the file. It is used with heavier pressure than the single-cut and removes material faster from the workpiece.

Bastard cut files have coarse teeth for rapid material removal.

Penelope ★★★★★

The rounded side of this bastard cut file fits perfectly into curved grooves I’m shaping, and the coarse texture removes material fast without clogging. It’s a solid, practical tool for fine-tuning wood joints.

Aurora ★★★★★

The flat side of this file makes quick work of squaring up wood tenons, while the rounded edge is perfect for smoothing inside curves. Cuts aggressively without clogging up too quickly.

Sebastian B. ★★★★★

I've been using it to clean up inside curves on some oak trim and the bastard cut grabs nicely without digging in too deep. The flat side handles the outer edges just as well as the rounded side does the hollows.
