I would also suggest rubbing some chalk into the file to help keep metal shavings out of the teeth. You'll also need a file card (cleaning brush) to get those shavings out once they get stuck in the file. Brush out the file every few strokes or those shavings will put deep scratches in the steel that'll be hard to get out later. I believe the term is "galling."
