am I crazy or is this a better deal? http://www.homedepot.com/p/DIABLO.../316549140

from what I can tell High Speed Steel is better than High Carbon Steel while getting an extra bit and storage bag for 4 dollars less.

I have both brands (Bosch and Diablo). The Bosch bits are decent and cut well, but dont last as long; especially well drilling into hardwood.
Both High-Speed Steel (HSS) and Carbon Steel are excellent choices for spade drill bits, depending on your needs. HSS offers superior heat resistance and durability, making it ideal for continuous, heavy-duty use. Carbon Steel is more affordable and very sharp, perfectly suited for standard, occasional woodworking.
A breakdown of how they compare helps determine which material is the best fit for your projects:

High-Speed Steel (HSS) Spade Bits:

Durability: Outstanding. HSS is alloyed with elements like tungsten or molybdenum, making it highly resistant to bending and breaking.
Heat Resistance: High. These bits can withstand the friction and high speeds generated when drilling deep holes without losing their cutting edge.
Best For: Hardwoods, frequent contractor use, and use with heavy-duty drills or impact drivers.
Top Options: Premium lines like the DEWALT High Speed Steel Spade Drill Bit Set are designed to handle rigorous, everyday wear-and-tear.

Carbon Steel (High Carbon) Spade Bits:

Sharpness: Excellent. Carbon steel can be ground to a very fine, precise edge for exceptionally clean cuts.
Affordability: Budget-friendly. These bits are cheaper to manufacture, making them perfect for building out a large collection.
Best For: Softwoods, plywood, and standard DIY home improvement jobs.
Top Options: Bits like the Bosch Daredevil High Carbon Steel Set provide incredible cutting speeds for quick jobs, though they can lose their temper and soften if pushed too hard at high speeds for long durations.

Personally, I prefer Irwin Speedbor over any spades. They are not even comparable, this is one-way road. Spades in my toolbox are just collecting dust.

Product Description:	Bosch Daredevil spade bits deliver the fastest drilling performance possible through wood, up to 10X faster than conventional spade bits. The bit as a full-cone threaded tip that pulls it through the wood, offering best-in-class speed through 2x4s. Ideal for clean-boring a lot of holes through wood fast to run conduit or pipe, these bits deliver a drilling speed and a force performance that sets them apart; these are not bits for counter sinking or Dowling. The spur-and-reamer feature on each Daredevil spade bit clears chips better, for a cleaner hole. The hex shank with power groove reduces bit slippage in the drill and makes it suitable for use with a variety of drill types, including impact drills. Do not use in drill press.
