    Maybe just my mind but the Viiala seems to cut better than the Valorbee

    I'll say again. There is a reason one of the best hand filers out there dont use these.

    One word again preached by Mike and me to you over and over BAHCO. I give up on ya. Done walking away from thread. Bye. :zip:

    Must be a reason why the best hotsaw builder and one of the best hand filers in the US prefers Bahco over Viiala. Nuff said BYE! :picard::doh::rofl: :lol:

    AGAIN look there I even tried them. If you are doing work chains, who cares use them. Faster chains, wellllllllllll nuff said above. :whistle::headbang::hair::loco: :crazy:

    Put a sheet of paper behind the cutters. It will help it focus. Then I can crop on my phone in studio.

    skippysphins if you don't want to post pictures then you don't need to. Send pictures through PM and ship some to guys to look at and test. I've done both and received constructive criticism and learned, which helped me improve. Be selective who you choose. There are guys that know there stuff and guys that are arm chair know it all's. Good luck with your search for your files you are after.
