Hi Julie
I gotta ask you one simple question!
What grade of files is “Grabby”

Hi Gerry,
the cut #0…! is coarser teeth, and can be more grabby than cut#2
i said cut#2 is less grabby:rofl:
finer teeth kinda glide over edges and protrusions better
like using a saw blade with less than the suggested number of teeth can be grabby too.

Julie, I usually use a #4 cut, as it gives me a smoother, filing-finish. Try it once in a while, you might get used to it. Yes, #2 is really too “grabby”. I usually shy away from it. The #2 cut leaves too many striations in the metal.
Your friend, (I think) Gerry.
