Project Farm's highest rated drill bits. These don't get reduced on Amazon very often. That said, if you live in Ohio, Menard's has this set on sale for $24.98… but alas, most of us do not live near a Menard's.

Be careful with Drill Hog. They like to slap American flags on everything and often will use a US made case, but most of their actual bits are of unknown origin.

They also just use a shopify website, have no phone number, and use a rented UPS box for their address. Not really much of a way to run a legitimate business.

I sure wouldn't pay a premium because they have a US flag on their card.

Sorry, I have neither; so nothing to trade. I do have a Rural King, though!

As an aside - I do own this set. I own a bunch of different drill bit sets. This Bosch set does live up to the Project Farm hype. I had to drill out a couple completely rusted bolts on a sensor on one of my cars (using a close quarter drill) and these bits cut through that steel like the proverbial hot knife through butter. I agree the MSRP is a bit of a joke, but these are unquestionably worth the normal ~ $35 Amazon asking price.

Although that's a bit high, and it probably never actually sells for that MSRP, cobalt bits are expensive. You really don't want to waste these where a high speed steel bit will suffice. These are for drilling into really hard materials.

I think cobalt drill bits can be sharpened.

Yes. It's highly recommended to use cutting fluid or other heat mitigation tricks, but otherwise they sharpen just fine.

I have this exact set and it works fantastic especially when other bits fail. I need to learn to sharpen them though because I've abused a couple bits so might as well grab a second set.

Possible anyone has first hand experience with these Bosch M42 VS harbor freight M35?
Wish there was a affordable M42 115pc indexed kit out there.

I have these m42 cobalt as well as an m35 set. The m42 have 8% cobalt over 5%. The both work, but the m42 drill a little easier. I have broken more m42 bits though because they are more brittle when I push through the hole and rotate them. For steel, these m42 are the best.
