    Default Hand files. Good source?

    Does anyone have a good source for hand files? Specifically, saw sharpening files.

    I am looking for a 4” 2x slim.

    I have a couple of 20 TPI saws that could use a touch up.

    I use Production Tool Supply for all my Bahco and Grommet files.

    Highland Woodworking is another option.
