9 Shinto Saw Rasp

Love the Shinto rasp. Very sharp and makes quick work of shaping wood repairs on re-purposed furniture. Well worth the money.

This is a tool that I am loving, so good for shaping wood. I dont give out 5 stars often. This tool is awl rite!

Love it. As the title says, this thing chomps its way through wood effortlessly. I havent used it long enough to experience any hand cramping as other users have mentioned. The dual sided cutting is brilliant and nice option to have either rough TPI for aggressive stock removal and a higher TPI side for smoother stock removal. I wish these came in curved options too for better rounding in tight spaces. But this one works awesome. I try to use it as much as I can.

This tool is great for trim, when you need to take a little more off than sandpaper can handle. Careful with it though, I got a little aggressive with it and it jumped onto my thumb, barely got it but still took some skin. Operator error

Removes stock quickly. I like that there is an aggressive side and a less aggressive side. Not a woodworker, just use this for odd-jobs like shaving down a sticking door. Item is well made. Only issue is that it doesnt look like you can sharpen it - once the teeth get dull thats it, I think. However, as long as you stick to wood (for which this is made) I dont see this dulling for a very long time.

If you are even looking at this you need it. Buy it you will be happy

Used this for the first time to shape a replacement board on a cedar swingset. All I can say is wow! Made quick work of the task and allowed me to get into a spot that a saw couldn’t. Also liked the double sided teeth. An aggressive done for removing material and a fine one for the details. I ended up sanding after that since I was working on a swingset, but the finish left by the fine tooth side would have been safe and didn’t leave any splinters. Super happy with the purchase.

This rasp is Awesome. Effortlessly take down/shape wood. The one I received is built solid.

This thing is awesome for removing that extra bit of material from a bad cut or getting a shape just right. I highly recommend it to even a casual woodworker or handyman. You seriously will not regret it.

Takes off wood faster than any rasp I’ve used in 40 years of woodworking. The finer side is smooth. Sanding was easy after using this rasp.
