I want to reassign Cmd ⌘ Shift ⇧ F to a custom command, but Finder reserves it to open 'All My Files'.
I have looked around Preferences-Keyboard-Shortcuts, but the Finder shortcuts do not seem to be listed, so I cannot remove them.
Is there any way to remove the Finder shortcuts so I can assign them to what I want?
Many thanks,
Will.
For compressing i found simple solution. I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 and It's worked for me.
Open system preferences and follow the screenshots:

That's It.
I know it's been long time since you asked the Question but i'm posting the answers for those who are still looking for solution.
The keyboard shortcut was changed to ⌃⌘F.
If you open a window with ⌃⌘F, there is no indication in the UI that Finder is matching only filenames other than that the "Name matches" item in the suggestion list is selected:
Finder should only match filenames even if you don't press return though.

You first have to assign 'All My Files' to something else [choose some complicated junk you'll never need]
You cannot remove a default, only reassign it.
Then you can add your chosen alternative with Cmd ⌘ Shift ⇧ F .
I used Documents to demonstrate, as it was just below
System Prefs > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts.
Finder [in fact no app] will not exist as a listed app until after you make the first shortcut for it.
To set up the first one, click + then select Finder from the drop menu; add your menu title, "All My Files" then your 'junk' key command.
After that, selecting the 'Finder' header from the list will auto-populate the app drop menu, making subsequent entries quicker.
