Superior control, flawless finishes, and available now without the wait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop-end furniture makers, luthiers, and sculptors throughout the world favor hand-stitched rasps over machine-made versions. Of the few European makers preserving this traditional art, Liogier has earned the respect of master craftsmen for over a century.\u003cbr\u003eThe secret to a hand-stitched rasp comes down to micro-irregularities. The uniform, perfectly spaced teeth of a machine-cut rasp create tracks in your workpiece—falling back into the same grooves stroke after stroke and digging them deeper. In contrast, the ever-so-slight misalignment of hand-stitched teeth avoids tracking entirely. You get effortless material removal, maximum control, and a far superior finish that drastically cuts down on sanding time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrdering directly from France typically requires a month-long build time, plus international shipping and customs fees. We’ve eliminated the friction: we commissioned a select supply of Liogier’s most popular sizes and styles, imported them in bulk, and made them available right here in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo elevate these world-class rasps even further, we’ve outfitted this limited run with our signature Blue Spruce handles turned from Cocobolo—one of the most sought-after, dense, and striking exotic hardwoods on earth. Borrowed from proven farrier designs, our heavy steel ferrule utilizes four set screws to lock the rasp tang firmly in place, unifying tool and handle into one solid extension of your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach rasp also includes our wall-mountable Rack-It holder. Constructed from heavy-gauge steel with a durable powder-coat finish, it keeps your investment protected, organized, and right at your fingertips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**Please note that due to current CITES regulations we are unable to ship Cocobolo and other Rosewoods or dalbergia outside of the USA. Please do not order these options if your final shipping destination is not in the USA. Thank you for your understanding. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Spruce Toolworks","offers":[{"title":"12\" HALF ROUND W\/ COCOBOLO HANDLE RASP + RACK IT","offer_id":49566239457539,"sku":"BS-00MIR300-5-CO","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\" CABINET MAKER W\/ COCOBOLO HANDLE RASP + RACK IT","offer_id":49566239490307,"sku":"BS-00FAU300-8-CO","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8\" CABINET MAKER W\/ COCOBOLO HANDLE RASP + RACK IT","offer_id":49566239523075,"sku":"BS-00FAU200-9-CO","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8\" MODELLER W\/ COCOBOLO HANDLE RASP + RACK IT","offer_id":49566239555843,"sku":"BS-00EFF200-12-CO","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"COCOBOLO RASP HANDLE + RACK IT","offer_id":49566239588611,"sku":"RASP-HNDL-COCO","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1788\/2191\/files\/Liogier-Woodworking-Rasps_Cocobolo_WEB_26_01.jpg?v=1788544269","url":"https:\/\/bluesprucetoolworks.com\/products\/small-batch-liogier-hand-stitched-rasps-with-custom-cocobolo-handles","provider":"Blue Spruce Toolworks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
