Bud,
Read the origins portion of this:

If worn out files were good enough for Hoyt Buck, who am I to doubt them?
I would add that things may have changed since the 1940s. Buck's classic methods had be outdated.
Ken
ps Ernie Conover often uses old files to make turning scrapers. Again, if it works for Ernie, who I have known and respected for more than twenty years, who am I to question?
