<p>I have used then - fantastic on rasps too. You can fit about 8 pounds of files in a Priority cardboard envelope. Just tape up the ends a bunch. You might also try a few hours in muriatic acid - works too.</p>

<p>I had a similar experience. My dual-sided tapered files came back FAR sharper than when new, albeit smaller in size. This is a bonus as I now have a bunch of "in-between" sizes. I reach for the sharpened set more often than the newer set. </p>
<p>Anyone know where I can get a diamond file recoated? </p>

<p>I'll have to round up box of my tosted files. Thanks!</p>

<p></p>
<p>My total bill was for 66 bucks, including return shipping, for 28 files. Interestingly 13 were marked as rejects, but they were not rejected from treatment. They just didn't respond well enough to pass testing, but they were MUCHO better than before treatment. Charge for them was 20 cents each.</p>

<p>That's quite a good endorsement! So not an "acid-etch" sharpening, but "abrasive blasting"? OK, I've got a fistful of some dull clunker files that should be good candidates. Thanks for the tip!</p>
