Great tool
Would RecommendI had never used a Forster bit before, but had a need for one on a recent project. These bits are great. They cut clean and fast every time. Perfect straight, round holes that are easy to control. Paul

Excellent bits, smooth cuts
Would RecommendI recently purchased these to use in my Jet drill press. They cut well. I used them to remove the majority of the waste in some mortises and they functioned flawlessly. No noticeable runout or wobbling.

Quality at this price point
Would RecommendNot as good as the higher end individual versions but I haven’t found a better set in this price range. They’re great in the press but the jagged teeth make hand drilling difficult compared to smooth edge versions.
