I have always prefered a 6" grobet single cut mill bastard file, and ever decreasing pressure.

I trim/shoe my own horses so I just use the smooth side of the farrier rasp.  They are really wide and long.  If you know someone who has horses, their farrier will probably give you old rasps once the course side gets too dull.  But the smooth side is still good enough for 3 blades.

Roger..
I don't know where the video link is..but if you haven't yet, you may want to check out the PDF I posted above.
It really helped me out.

Someone once posted a video of sharpening 3-blades using a 8" grinder (think maybe it was Ryan Rothhaar) but don't know how to locate it...

I have a 16" Nicholson that I bought for big Snuffers but mainly ended up using for Grizzly's as shown in one of the other old videos.  I checked and they can still be ordered from Grainger online probably cheaper than Amazon depending on shipping, didn't look that close so not sure.  They are very handy to have on the bench.
