Made in Italy by Corradi, a fifth-generation family firm established in 1910, these machine-cut half-round rasps are precisely manufactured to strict standards of quality. The teeth are evenly spaced, raised to a consistent height, and arranged in a wave-like pattern that shears wood quickly and won't readily clog. The dense pattern and tapered tips combine to permit precise work, letting you use a short stroke to concentrate the cut over a small area when needed.
