 Just picked these up.... Mar 01, 2010
By Bob Champoux
I did just pick these up so I don't have a worthwhile opinion yet...
I'm posting this just to let you know what the cut is on these since I wasn't able to find it online. Since these are Swiss Pattern files, the cut is #2 on a scale of 00,0,1,2,3,4,5,6. With #00 being very coarse, #0 coarse, #2 considered fine and #6 super fine.
Initial thoughts are that this hobby set aren't as nicely manufactured as my Nicholson X.F. needle files. The Round file is more blunt and thicker as is the Square on the hobby set. Based on the other reviews, I'm hoping they will last a good long while as they are fine cut and I will just be using them for finish filing and not doing any serious removal of material.

 Best Needle Files Around Apr 27, 2011
By Scientist-Craftsman-Engineer
This assortment of needle files is of excellent quality and craftsmanship. They are single cut with nice sharp ridges and made from a durable tool steel. The six files provide the right shape for any situation and they come in a convenient little pouch. They will leave a nice smooth finish on whatever it is you are filing. I would recommend having a good brush for clearing away the material that inevitably will get built up between the ridges when filing. Also the tangs are good enough to be used as is for light hobby work, but for anything that requires more force, a handle is also recommended. These files are quite small so get a handle that is suited to their size since a regular handle will dwarf them in diameter and possibly make them harder to use in tight places.

None compare to these Jun 22, 2007
By William L. Brady
I have had a set of these for many years along with several other brands sets. These files out cut all others on nearly any material. Only my diamond files out cut them but not as smoothly and they are not as durable. (the diamonds crush and come un-bonded). I just wish I could afford the big Nicholson set. I consider these as a "must have" in my tool kit. I also own some loose Nicholson files in larger sizes; these too beat the competition.
I have misplaced two files now and so am ordering a new set.
 Bummer May 04, 2012
By Brian J. Des Jardin
I couldn`t understand how domestic files could be so inexpensive. It`s because they aren`t domestic- they`re Chinese. Hopefully the quality ispection is good, but I`m not holding my breath. If they wear out post haste, I guess it`s back to Grobet.
