Narex 872533 Hand Cut Stitched 10 Inch Cabinet Maker’s Rasp Fine Cut 15-1/2 Inches Overall European Hornbeam Handle

This hand cut rasp is made by Narex Bystrice of the Czech Republic who has been in the business of making premium edge tools for near a century. Cabinet maker’s rasps are generally used for shaping work and can remove a lot of material and leave a smooth surface. The rasp blank is forged and then carefully ground to final shape. The teeth are carefully stitched by hand to a uniform height, but with a slightly irregular pattern. This allows the rasp to cut quickly yet leave an even surface with no scratch pattern. Blades are stitched right to the edge to allow working in tight corners. This rasp will work equally well with both right and left handers. Blade is 10” long. In cross-section, the blade is curved on the top and flat on the back. Handle is 5-1/2” x 1-3/8” round made from dense European Hornbeam. Overall length is 15-1/2”. Blade is 1-1/8” at its widest and tapers to 3/4”. Tooth pattern is considered fine with 60 teeth per square centimeter or 384 per square inch. This is a great value for a well-made hand-cut rasp.
