After watching the steps and learning about how many years it takes someone to learn that craft, suddenly the 109 dollars usd, seems like a very reasonable price.
Simply incredible tools. The things that you can do with them are amazing. I am not a artisan like craftsman by any measure, but I learned that the limitations of a machine tool is no longer a limit - just get fairly close to a cut line without going over, a lioger rasp will get you there the rest of the way. And the finish after the cutting with the rasp is just amazing. From me and all those other grateful woodworkers out there- Thank you Noel (And Auriou) for keeping a beautiful craft alive.
Wow that was interesting. I didn't think anyone still did this by hand. Having experience in maintenance, machining, and machine fabrication I can appreciate the efforts involved here and my salute to those folks. Thank you for keeping tradition alive
Purple Haze did you know the famous sculptures in the world that are 2000 yrs old and more, were made with rasps mostly. rasps are one of the main tools along with chisel an mallet.
I am a big fan of functional, cheap tools, that you can buy on a budget. This philosophy works fine with hammers and screwdrivers. However, with some tools, every extra penny you spend, saves you time and money in the future. For example, quality drill bits, metal files and saw blades, speed up your work, last longer and pay for themselves. I spent the afternoon trying to shape a replacement axe handle, with a draw knife, sandpaper and a three dollar rasp. It was a bloody nightmare. So yes, this does indeed explain why people cherish their rasps, why the good ones cost so much, and incidentally, why I am going to buy one of these fine tools. Godspeed to you sir.
They are brilliant tools I have one and it is truly a joy to work with. They are so cheap considering what goes into making them. I am currently making my own knife, but I wouldn't even attempt making a rasp I bet hand stitching them is not easy.
Im so happy i can make a wood rasp i live far away from town so trying to buy supplies is a pain since i am surrounded by natural material i figured i might as well make it my self. Thanks for the vids i mostly use wood raspt to make bows and arrows and thats what i am yurning for.
Looking forward to one turning up in post . Didn’t realise quite what i was buying I thought it was just an expensive file didn’t realise its all hand crafted and finished. No more crocked axe handles for me now
Nice , great work, it is becoming a dying craft, I used to stitch some called it stipple and or stripple(sp?) I think, man oh man I hated doing large jobs. My hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders and neck still pay for it. BUT I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN.
i just bought one of these.... left handed modlers rhasp cost me 150 canadian and fuck am i ever glad i spent the money. its amazing for guitar building
Hard to explain to someone who never used or own one of these tools why they are worth the money, but speak to anyone who bought at least one of these rasps and they will all tell you how amazing they are and all the things they can do better once they own one.
Very interested in purchasing one or two of these for stick making.they look stunning.A quick question though...me being left handed, I read somewhere that they are more suited to right handers!!!.is this true??
Yes its true. The link to this tool maker's website didn't work so here's a page which mentions it on the Auriou site: forge-de-saint-juery.com/rasp-care/
So it takes two years to train someone to punch the individual rasp teeth. What is the average years of experience of the craftsmen and machinists at Liogier?
That's a kind of chisel, it probably has some bizarre name in the trade. My guess is that this isn't something you can buy, but something that's made in the plant just for that use. Probably nobody sells file-making tools! I've seen some pictures in old technical books, this might be the kind of thing you find in an engineering library and not so much online. The one bit of good news: It's probably easy enough to make your own, making a cold chisel is something we used to do in High School Shop! Making, hardening and tempering a FILE has got to be fifty times harder I would think.
Knowing nothing of your situation or the quality of your formula, I still hope that if you don't have heirs and it is a superior formulation that you make some provision for it not getting lost to time.
Noel Liogier Sorry but never Hered of your tool company before but I can tell by the amount of skilled labour use on your tool making It says a lot about your company and quality I live in England and sorry again what part of the world do you make your tools in thanks séan
@@TheMoulhoud I have all the respect I can have for you I have hand cut a file slow and shockingly strainful process, I must ask how many times do you wack your thumb a day?
Seeing people making that kind of tool, that way, in 21th century.... Makes me really happy. Thanks a lot!

Incredibly reasonable.
Gipsyes sell these for 5 euro and they are high quality.

Absolutely amazing. This craft is a technological treasure. You all should be VERY proud of your skill. Magnificent! Much much respect.

gotta love the old leather strap at 2:37. great video...
Beautiful to see such skill and to know that some manufacturers still hold dear to the mantra of quality matters.
That explains why people cherish their rasps, also why the good ones cost so much.

Just invested $420 USD on 4 Liogier rasps today. I can’t wait to start using them.
I'd be interested in a discussion of the chisels/punches to form the rasp teeth and the geometry of such.
That looks an interesting job. The working day must simply fly by.
Impressionnant ... une merveille , un bijou ... merci MONSIEUR l'artiste
Wonderful tools. Bravo!
Indeed. Quite impressive.
Facinating!

Lol
remarkable!

I had no idea!

Cool, I always wonder who made those tool.
I am also manufacturer in Pakistan.We made rasps by hand.
Eh ben j'imaginais meme pas la quantité de travail pour une râpe... Impressionant.

if one capable to perceive craftsmanship of a tool he can not execute anything against aesthetics in his work

So it takes two years to train someone to punch the individual rasp teeth. What is the average years of experience of the craftsmen and machinists at Liogier?
Always wondered how this was done. Could have done without the dramatic music...
Does sand blasting have any effect on the sharpness of the teeth?
Sand blasting would have a negative on the sharpness of the teeth, but it is not sand that I am using.
There are a lot of different blasting media that can be used. Sand blasting is just the blanket term that is common.
Where can I buy a punch to do that?
What kind of steel is the cutting tool made of?
All our tools are made in-house. We use a special alloy designed, through decades of testing, for the longevity of its sharpness.
2:18 Hello, what is the tool called he uses to punch in the groves? ( i dont mean the hammer)
thx i already watched them but i need the correct name to search it on ebay, cant find it.

Is hai to maibhi bana sakta hook
can you please tell me what type of steel you use to make those files?
This is part of my family's secrets for a few generations. I hope you'll understand I cannot give it away on the internet. :)
UNDERSTANDABLE and I wish you the best thank you
