there is a link below the detail on each rasp to open a chart.

Handle chart is available just click on a rap and the link is just below the picture.

Ah, thanks guys. I was obviously in doff mode when looking for this information.

I agree with Pedder about the Iwasaki rasps. They are a lot better then my Bahco rasps, but they definetely have a prefered grain direction. I use them for roughing out the shape, then with a very light touch you can polish the wood a little bit. Then I switch to sandpaper. I often had my hand hoovering above the purchase button for some Liogier rasps, but the price keeps me back. I get excellent results with strips of sandpaper, but I guess it is much more work.
