    Falcon Tools has various sets of sintered diamond files- that's why
    the cost of the Rio ones were higher than the average readily
    available plated/coated files..however, for relatively decent needle
    files with industrial diamond plating, you can get the harbor
    freight set for under 6 bucks, they work fine for about a year or so,
    if you clean them after using. You can find many distributors selling
    imported ( chinese and pakistani) diamond files for upwards of 10
    bucks a set (6), or as I said, Falcon Tools has a variety of
    offerings,all pricier than plated ones..I have used many diamond
    files and all do the exact same thing, grit for grit and style for
    style. I consider them consumables though and for my money and given
    the preformance of sintered vs. plated, the difference is marginal
    for the cost of sintered vs. plated..Most of the sets you find in
    the 15-20 buck range are all the same imported plated grade that
    harbour freight sells..so why pay more?
