Thesmaller the number the more aggressive/faster material is removed and the rougherthe exposed surface. The larger the number the less aggressive/slower materialis removed and the smoother the exposed surface. #5 and #6 are consider idealfor woodworking as a compromise to offer a quick cutting action but leaving asmooth surface. Also, the longer/larger a tool is the larger the cuttingsurface of the tool and the more pressure that can be brought to bear on theworking surface making larger tools the tool of choice for faster stockremoval.This 8' rasp is 15.5mm wide (widest point) x 5mm thick (thickest point), with a 205mm-long cutting surface that narrows to a point and is covered in teeth all the way out to the point - a feature that is very expensive to produce but makes for a very versatile tool.Usines Metallurgiques de VallorbeUsines Metallurgiques de Vallorbe or simply Vallorbe was founded in 1899 and is located in the Jura Mountains of Switzerland.
