In this age of counterfeit everything... it's refreshing to receive the genuine article. These hardness testing files were ordered and shipped directly from Japan. The price was great and they arrived sooner than predicted. They work very well and as expected. The instructions are written in Japanese but if you need guidance on how they're used, English instructions are available on the Internet.

I’m new, this is a recommended brand and comes highly regarded. Reasonably priced and already has found issues with products I’ve purchased from professional brands that claim to be a certain hardness but fall woefully short. They will surely assist me well in my own endeavors.

Nothing bad to say at all. Hardness files are a need for serious knife makers. Get a set if you make your own knives so you can tell if you got the steel hard enough.

First use was to sort my antique chisels by hardness. I was able to sell some for more at the local MWTCA meetup because I could show they were higher quality.
