Jewelers' needle files work in one direction and must be used in a push action, filing gently away from you in one direction. If used incorrectly the teeth of the file will round off and dull quickly making them unusable. These needle files sets are fine and delicate, and with proper care and use will last a lifetime, so do treat them with care. Do use a dry toothbrush or a stiff paintbrush to clean them if the teeth become clogged Do keep them dry Do use them in one direction only Do store them on their own, back in their packet Do not bend them Do not put excess strain on them Do not use them in a see-saw, back and forth action Do not store them where they will become damaged by friction against other tools
