We don't sell the Shinto Saw Rasp - it sells itself. An absolute tactile delight, it's the only tool you'll ever want to use for rough shaping of exterior profiles.
The Shinto saw rasp is the number one selling rasp in Japan. It is the one tool that every woodworker should have in their tool chest or workshop.
These rasps are made using multiple saw blades joined together in a diamond configuration.They are highly efficient at removing material such in soft woods, hard woods, soft metals and composite materials.
They are ideal for general shaping work as the tooth configuration will not tear out the grain. On the contrary, they cut the grain fast and effectively. Lastly, the diamond pattern makes the rasp clog resistant.

This Shinto saw rasp is the number one selling rasp in Japan.
It is made by using multiple saw blades joined together in a diamond configuration, which is clog resistant. Designed to remove wood on the push stroke, the second handle, which is located halfway down and centred above the blade, allows greater pressure to be applied to the material.
The blade can easily be rotated to use either the coarse or fine side, allowing for fast and efficient removal of material.
This rasp is suitable for flat and curved surfaces, general shaping and the removal of materials such as wood, soft and composite materials.
Teeth: 10 TPI coarse, 24 TPI on the fine side.

Best tool I have bought for years.
I used this rasp for finishing shaping the Huon Pine transom on my Somes Sound 12 1/2 clinker wooden sail boat.
Used firmly it removes timber very quickly but then used lightly allows very accurate finishing to the awled pin prick marked from the pattern to a flat finish.

I have been using western style rasps for 60 years. I don't know why I wasted so much time. Sure they do a fine shaping job, but they are nowhere near as fast as this Shinto. For first up waste removal and shaping of guitar bodies this is the best and quickest.
