[QUOTE="ironman_gq, post: 2491188, member: 27462"] probably not a problem. Its hard on the files because they are designed to cut in one direction and the "teeth" on them are built to handle forces in that direction. If you put pressure on them and go the wrong way it folds or rounds over the cutting edge of the "tooth" and your file goes dull (same with reams and other one way cutters). Now for as long as a round file lasts (not very long) and for what they cost, I wouldnt worry about what your doing too much. [/QUOTE]
