File tips are pointed: store the set in its sleeve and file away from your body. Keep out of reach of children. Hold the work in a vise or clamp so both hands stay behind the file, and cut on the push stroke with light, even pressure. Not for use on hardened steel; the coarse teeth are cut for wood and soft materials. Brush wood dust out of the teeth with a stiff brush after use, keep the files dry, and wipe them with a lightly oiled cloth before storing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eYour questions, answered\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhich shapes are in the set?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix: flat, half-round, round, square, triangular and a pointed flat file, as pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow long are the files?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer lists a file length of 140 mm (about 5.5 in) and a width of 3 mm (about 0.12 in).
