Default are wdmusic.co.uk tools good quality?

hello

i am thinking of purchasing a starter set of nut files and the only individual files I can find in the UK are from www.wdmusic.co.uk

they are selling their own brand tools and I want to purchase sizes .016, .024 and .032" nut files

http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/individual-nut-file-2651-p.asp

does anyone know if these tools are good quality?

Japarts.ca carries Japanese made nut files. About 12 or 13 bucks a piece, Canadian dollars.

They're Hosco tools, same as the pack of ten. Never used them but they seem a common enough option.

I would recommend the StewMac nut files. Even with shipping, I'm sure they'll end up being cheaper (and better) than those WD offerings.

I love mine, and StewMac's customer service is second to none.
