Had seen these Shinto rasps over the years, finally picked one up at a Woodcraft store. Really takes down wood fast and does not plug up at all. $32 ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/7hk72YJz/18-B270-C5-F6-D9-4-F36-A1-E7-31-D7-EE9-E650-F.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/yd9cxSxB/2-F26051-E-3-D3-F-4-BEE-8-C04-CC849-EE05-DBD.jpg)

Wow, that looks like a really aggressive rasp. Not sure I could trust myself with one of those....  I've always like the Nicholson 4 way rasps so I can change from coarse to fine and back as I go along to check progress as I need to, but one of these might be on my list now.... Bob

This rasp has a course and fine side. The fine side is not aggressive at all.

Will have to try one. What kind of surface do they leave??
I have been using Iwaskis. They work very well and leave a smooth finish on the hard maple I stock from. Smooth enough I go right to cabinet scrapers and onto finishing.

I have been using one of those for years in furniture making. They work great.

Ordering one now. Looks better than the wood rasps I have been using.
Thanks for the tip.

Shinto rasps are awesome. Ive been using them for about 5 years. I wish they made them that have a "curved" face.

I was gifted one of these a few years ago by my wood working father who obviously knows better than me, and was tired of my poor substitutes when he visited for family work days. These are the bees knees.
Yep.

Looks like a search for Shinto Rasp or Woodcraft store in DuckDuckgo.com is the way to go.
AND
UNLIKE those other guys, DuckDuckGO.com does not spy on your searches.

I heartily agree on the quality of this tool! It removes wood quickly with the coarse side and more carefully with the fine side. I am pleased I found out about this. If you are in doubt, buy it. It will erase your doubts with first use. I bought mine on-line, probably from Amazon.

I saw this thread and ordered one right away. I don't have a stock to make right now but look forward to it. Filed on a piece of Myrtlewood a bit and it looks like it will work well. GD
