Iwasaki curved tooth files produce a wonderfully fast clean cut on wood and can also be used on soft metals like aluminium and brass.

Japanese carving files are designed to work with the grain. The tool will work efficiently under its own weight, reducing the pressure as you approach the finished shape will help to yield the smoothest possible surface.

Workshop Heaven's Iwasaki carving files are fitted with our signature Holtzapffel pattern walnut handle as standard.
