this workshop is ticking as a clock, beautiful.

Having worked as a toolmaker and used many of these different files of various shapes, sizes, and cuts, this gives a new perspective on their manufacture. Dedication to your craft.

This video is a real treat. I've been seeking this info for a while. Searching for "hand stitched files and rasps" usually returns results concerning needle point or computer files. Hand made tools are worth every penny.The fact that these are not twice the price is a testament to the skill, and efficiency of these craftsmen. Thanks for posting.

These are beautiful. World class workmanship.

Thank you for inspring. Great documentation

I've made a few tools, because I didn't have one or when they didn't make one. It warms my soul to see and know that real Craftsman still care to make them ! I will be saving my money to buy a set of carving tools to start with. Thank You T. Morgan Wa. USA

That,.. Is truly Incredible craftsmanship.. Great work guys

nice to see some things are still made by hand.

I am so impressed and thrilled that this kind of craftsmanship exists today. A wonderful production that I hope will continue in the future...

So very impressed, these craftsmen are just that, CRAFTSMEN... An honor to posses and use their works of art...

I have several of these rasps and they are worth every penny. Amazing to watch the video.

It's always a pleasure to watch skilled handworkers.

The craftsmanship and attention to detail are impressive. This video makes one want to purchase these tools simply to support the craft itself -- not to mention that one is getting a first-class tool for a lifetime.

holy hell. the thought never crossed my mind of how a rasp was made in a traditional way. This is extremely educational.

Those are gorgeous! I would so love a set!

those are beautiful. thanks for sharing the process with us.

I used these tools working in the wood shop at Lie-Nielsen tools for years to carve and form the saw handles. There's nothing like them. They chew through wood as though it were butter and can make a tough job easy. Even in retirement they are one of the things I truly miss.

What a fine work Cheers all you guys

Never knew so much work was involved Great Video!

Love those!!!!! Very much enjoyed your video and gave it a thumbs up also

One of the top ten videos i've watched on youtube fantastic!

I have seen wood cuts in books of making files and rasps by hand, but I would never have imagined it was still being done today. It was fantastic to see the process.

That was fascinating! Neat to watch for a 10 minute presentation but it looks like a very tedious job. I hope those craftsmen are well paid for all that detail work!

Un grand BRAVO à vous pour la réalisation de ces produits d'exception !... Un bel exemple de la sauvegarde du patrimoine artisanal !!!...

I remember going to garage sales and flea markets back during the 70's and 80's, looking for Sheffield steel?? not sure if that's right. They use to make the finest steel small tools for plastering and such. Rarely you could find some in a box or old tool chest. I'm glad to see that someone is carrying on with the tradition of making what is needed, even if it is in small amounts, to fudge the prices... Thank you for all you do!

My God that is amazing craftsmanship, It amazing that someone still can make such high quality files with a hammer and punch, I want one of that's files for my handmade tool collection.

Wow such a Crazy hand work!

Beautifully made.

Amazing! Beautiful work.

Incredible....the skill and the patience.

Maestros excelentes , de hoy en adelante apreciaré aún más el valor y la utilidad de las limas . gracias .Mercí .

Wow. What an amazing video. Makes my file restoration look very amateurish. Thanks for posting this. Cheers.

Bloomin ell that's insane, talk about intricate work. So good.

I did not know how those are made by hand, until today. I really liked this video. very cool! thank you!

Hahaha wow, the eyes nearly shot out of my head when I saw how effortlessly he was putting the the texture on that rat tail by hand!

Franchement c'est vraiment la classe j'adore cette vidéo. 👍👍👍

Man that makes me want these rasps even more!

Wow, very impressive!

Awesome video, very interesting

That's incredible!

wow!! so much detail

Excellent masterpiece ,,,,respect from Iran.

Thanks for posting this video. I have known about these for a long time but never knew how involved it is to make one. Goes to show you that some things are just not possible in MasterCam.

Great post.

Truly beautiful !

Hola, Gran trabajo, tenéis unas manos maravillosas.

Simply WOW.

I have made rasps but never this big. Thanks for posting this informative video.

Very satysing.

wow just wow I just had my mind blown.

It pleases me so much to see a company who has kept to traditional ways of making tools long may they continue, wish l had a set of rasps same quality of these instead of my cheap and nasty ones from the far East.

worth the money....those rifle-ers are a joy to use.....i was amazed at how slowly they quenched the heated final product.....most people wack em in fast as.

I have one of these. It is awesome!

wow very good work

Very good.

Wow simply wow

great video, thanks. Good to see that not everything is made by some automated process,hope it continues...

Amazing...

Interesting, beautiful work! Did anyone else notice the tip braking off the half round rasp as the guy is finishing the end in the lead block?

Awesome!!!

I was not aware of the workmanship that goes into making these files. I have over the years collected numerous files and I definitely now appreciate more what went into producing them.

What the actual fuck my mind is blown this is true talent at work

Great to see true craftsmen at work and the fact that there were younger people there as well learning these skills thy are so often lost

Wow this is friggin amazing...CRAZY!

Great skills

Sweet video, very well produced. I would have loved to see one or two of the rasps being used, to see how fast it cuts and the finish it leaves. Video portrays a Zen like calmness in the craftsman. Even though they are performing a repetitive task day after day the craftsman show an attentiveness and commitment that I feel compelled to respect.

Fantastique, salutations à tous ces ouvriers. Merci de tout cœur.

Awesome

Just wow I love the skill amazing focus really in the zone 5***** :-)

Fascinating

Quelle merveille! Malheureusement on n'a pas ici au Bresil de ces outils!!!

VERY GOOD

SENSACIONAL!!!!

wow, it's very impressive how much hand work is put into these rasps, are they available in Europe?

Magnifique

that is art!

Deben ser muy caras con un proceso tan manual El trabajo es magnífico

Harika bir işçilik el emeği ve göz nuru tebrik ediyorum.

This seems like so much work for an item that wears.

how files were made when they were first invented... didn't know anyone was making them by hand in any measure today; thanks very much for the video.

Quite a bit of emotion did I feel when watching this video. I live and work as a furniture restorer and cabinet-maker here in Paris, France. I'm lucky enough to own some dozen of these beauties. Although the teeth are smaller than their industrial counterparts, they really slice into the work with no rip-out. France still has a strong artisan heritage that's unique in the world. It is totally uneqauled in the quality of it's work. If you want proof, look up the story of "compagnonnage". Aurevoir

Hermosas!!!.. que placer..

Cool.

Good tool is a pleasure

Well worth the money for the file. When I use the file I think how great it is that someone still has a skill other than how to turn on a iphone.

Rasps and files can be sharpened by soaking them in vinegar for a day or two. Other acids may work better. Using the rasp properly (forward ONLY) extends the life pretty much indefinitely.

great to see I was the last forger at cook and Nicolson of Sunderland could still forge a file now even after 30 years..

I just bought my first Auriou Cabinet Rasp. 10" 9 grain. After seeing just how much heart, sweat, and soul these people put into making these rasps i will think of that every time i use mine and thank them for their fine craftsmanship.

I heard that guy sometimes has bad days and hammers swear words in braille into the pattern of the file. Thats why it's called the Bastard cut

Indeed the very best handmade rasps and files being made today ! Nobody does it like this any longer because it's labor intensive and costs more....well worth the price compared to Chinese stamped junk . Anyday !

I know these are wood rasps, but man I wish these guys made auger files. No one currently does and Auriou is top quality. They would pretty much be the sole producers.

Holy Moly!

I will never look at my rasp the same way again!

Masterwork! I wonder if the sandblasting is taking some of the sharpness away or just the oxide?

Do they temper them after hardening?

I love all the comments left by people who obviously don't make things criticising the manufacturing process. Premium tools are worth it if you actually make your living with them.

Ótimo trabalho,bela arte !

,nice
