File question
Bill Tindall, E.Tn.
How are files measured? Is a 10" file 10" of cutting length or 10" tang to tip?
What is the name of the cut where there are single grooves going diagonally?

A file’s length is measured from the base of its heel to the end of its point. The tang or handle is not included when determining the length.
Single cut.
