 Drill bits are straight and precise, but dull, prepare to sharpen. September 7, 2008

First thing I noticed out of the box is that the bits are visibly dull.
Even to bare eyes the cutting edges look frayed, like a wood chisel that really needs sharpening.
As a consequence this new forstner bit does not cut as fast as a Freud bit I have used for years. (Even though the design and shape are almost identical to the Freud.) The bottom of drill holes in pine shows tearout and some fraying.
I have tried to sharpen a bit with a dremel, this improves things. This can take 5 minutes per bit.
Why not 1 or 2 star? I suspect that after sharpening you still end up with a drill bit that lasts better than a cheaper version. Cheaper ones of course may be dull(er) as well. More importantly, these bits are straight and precise so they don't wobble like cheaper ones.

The Porter Cable Forstner Bit set is an excellent value. Not much more than the no-name imports that have very poor quality.
The Porter Cable set is a professional grade bit w/o an extravigant price.

Well made and nice clean cuts.
Very good quality and comes in a nice storage box.
Glad I did not go for the cheaper bits.
