If they came to a crisp point on the corner, they would break off on the tip instantly and once one or two teeth chip, those behind it will follow very soon as they have no support on one side of the cut. </p><p></p><p>Bahco files are more rounded, which is great for file longevity, but not so great for really small teeth as you can actually have the teeth clog. I've never had it happen on anything else other than a kerf saw and a dovetail saw that had gullets a bit shallow and round. But if you cheat and try to use too big of a file on a small saw, you can end up making the teeth pack with dust every couple of strokes.</p><p></p><p>It may sound dumb, but I try to mark which files I've used for saws or match the gullet profile to the file first, otherwise if you pick a smaller corner, you'll waste time cutting the gullets out of the teeth before you can even file the teeth properly.</p></blockquote><p></p>
