Okay Boomer. Buy the harbor freight bits for $10, see how far they get you. They rub the wood off, they don't even cut it

Interesting how it was this item that devolved into an everything-on-Amazon-is-counterfeit discussion. I must be lucky. I've purchased a lot on Amazon. I don't remember receiving a single counterfeit...

I could be wrong, but my understanding is that it's not their budget line, Diablo is just their modern rebranding, cuz Freud sounds extremely old school

It's a fair question for anything sold by Amazon these days but I don't see drill bits being highly counterfeit like this. Plenty of other common areas to counterfeit and scam. but i've been burned...

I too question the claimed prevalence of counterfeits. Maybe I'm just not one to buy commonly counterfeit products.

Then I got the Woodriver from Woodcraft, it was even worse.

Honestly I think the odds of a counterfeit are low here - pay close attention to the cutting edge of the bits and compare to the pictures. These wavy style bits are not common and superior. As long...

The wave cut will give you a much cleaner cut than the sawtooth cut, they just don't cut quite as fast. The point of forstner bits is to make a very clean cut, so I'd rather give up a little speed of...

I'd rather go with Fisch wave cutter bits. They're great bits. If you're just starting out I would just buy the bits I need, because half of the bits you'll never use.
