The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes,
Licked its tongue into the comers of the evening,
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys,
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night,
Curled once about the house and fell asleep.

Reach the under surface of the acromion with these “purr-fect" rasps. The rounded, 50 mm long by 5mm wide, working surface has sharp papillae reminiscent of the tongue of your favorite feline friend. Like Kitty's tongue, the underside of this rasp is flat and smooth. This is especially noteworthy in the convex version (rasping surface forward) as the slick back would be non-abrasive to the humeral head when performing an acromioplasty.

The handles are constructed of comfortable tabby-colored linen-phenolic stock. Think of these rasps as multilingual—gato, neko, koyangi—for they come in convex, straight, and concave versions.
