Bahco saw file sizes

samedi 27 juin 2015

There are some knowledgable people about saw making here, so I've got a question for you all.

I would like to buy some packages of sawfiles and while browsing the Bahco catalogue, something peculiar caught my attention. What is really the difference beteen slim, extra slim and double extra slim?

They show this picture:

When I look at a slim, then a file with B= 6mm has a length A of 100mm (4").
The extra slim: B = 6mm, then A = 112 or 125mm (4.5" or 5").
And double extra slim for B = 6mm has a length of 150mm (6").

So, under what circumstanbces would I use a slim versus a double extra slim? In my primitive look on things I would say, take the longest possible file for a given size of B. They all have cut 2 and all have about the same tpi (23 or 24 teeth per cm).

Maybe the radius of the edge differs? I think so, but why is that?
