High quality set!

Managed to fix al my guitar nuts (haha).
But seriously, after buying these files, I found that I have waited way to long to get a good set like this.
Indeed, they are not super cheap, but it works so much better than trying to make your own files or using strings to cut out the best guitar nut.
If anything, they are a bit wide. The cut will be a v shape, so make sure that your nut is not to high.

Extra almost related tip, use a nail polish file to file the full nut and get a great shine!

Good value set of files

I've had a couple of sets of files and ended up wanting to try something other than the REALLY expensive ones. I saw these and thought I'd give them a go.

Upon receipt I checked the cutting edge with a pair of callipers and got some varying results. To ensure I'm cutting at the correct width I simply marked the files with black pen where it exceeded the target cut by more than 0.002".

I have used these to re-cut a GraphTech nut, a couple of bone nuts and an aluminium nut. All have been very successful with no string binding or slippage.

I'm very happy with the files and will continue to use them until blunt!

Too thick

The thinnest file where suppost to be 0.010 inch. I measured it to be 0.038 inch. I can’t USE this to make a slot for the E 1st string. Thomann and distributor denies this is a problem...

Good quality files but the V of the edges is a bit too abrupt...good for first cut but not for finishing.
