Gramercy Tools | Our Own Brand Gramercy Tools Hand Cut Saw Handle Maker’s Rasp

This special rasp was suggested to us by Clark & Williams Planemakers. It’s a traditional tool for the specialized trade of saw handle making, although anybody working in a closed space will find this rasp useful. It’s basically a 6″ hand-cut cabinetmaker’s rasp with teeth on the half round side only and bent concave. These features allow you to easily shape the inside curves of a handle without hitting the opposite side of the handle opening. The bend in the rasp also helps you hug the curve you are shaping to give you more control. We know this is a highly specialized tool, but it’s perfect for its tasks. We think it may find some application in shaping more general inside curves in other projects (not just saw or plane handles). And even if it only appeals to tool makers, we are happy to do our part and return this tool to availability after disappearing for a century. Hand-cut random pattern. Flat side smooth. Edges safe. 6″ long, fine or coarse cut. With wood handle. Made of surgical grade stainless steel for a tough, long life.
