What a clean hole [Posted on 2000-12-23] As you can tell from the title of this review, I am impressed with these brad point bits. I recently built a hobby table for a Christmas gift, and the table was built of hard clear maple. These bits did a marvelous job. Fisch recommends a 2-3,000 rpm speed range and my drill press belt ratio put mine at 2610 rpm, almost perfect. The holes were clean and burr free each time. After drilling over a hundred holes, I wanted my local blade sharpening shop to check them out. They said it was clearly a quality HSS bit, that had an interesting tip spur configutration that maintains the outside hole diameter while drilling, and no clean up or sharpening was necessary. Whatever the reason, I can assure you that these bits drill a nice, clean, burr free hole. I cant attest to how much the bits are worth in relation to the walnut case they come in, but after using these brad points, I dont care. A nice set that should last for years to come, I certainly recommend these. One other note, like most products, HSS is graded, my sharpening service ( who has a very good reputation locally ) said that these were true HSS steel and despite being more expensive initially, will endure fewer sharpenings over their life span. Pay now, or pay later.
