Excellent bit for a drill press. As for free handing, it could use just a tad more point to get it started without walking off center. Once it digs in it is a fast cutter that leaves a beautiful hole.

Looks and performs as a precision tool. Clean smooth cut.Be careful. As the pilot point goes into the wood it can catch and pull the wood up into the bit. If used on a drill press, I had to hold the wood down firmly to keep it from popping up.

good quality bit but does have a squared edge not noted so makes mounting in traditional chuck a bit tricky.

Gets the job done. Been through a couple sharpening cycles with these and still kicking. Amazon price rang in a few dollars under the hardware supply co. I contacted. Throw in Prime shipping and it's a great deal.

What a sweet bit. Made drilling all my hinge holes for my walnut cabinet doors a snap. Nailed the mark on each and every time for 14 doors. Very clean holes, smooth sides and a flat bottom with just a (less than a 1/16 inch) dimple at the middle. The reason I'm stating this it that I had another bore for the project and after using both in the same drill press the difference was night and day. The other bore wobbled so badly i was forced to build a jig to help me get the holes right. It was so bad I couldn't build the jig right. Checked out Amazon that night after hours of frustration. Bottom line.... I kept the Freud and tossed the other in the garbage. I'm a believer in Freud quality. I now own 3 other Freud router bits since I bought this one.

Works great. Cuts very smoothly. I haven't tried in softer woods but cut very precise holes in maple, with no tearout of any kind. The shoulder of the cut (surface to hole) couldn't be cleaner. Blum hinges fit perfectly in said hole. End of story.

Nice stubby bit. Length is 2 1/4" overall with 1" long, 3/8" shank, the center tip protrudes 1/16" past the flats. Shank has a flat ground into it. Have used it in Poplar and Cherry with no tear out. Fits Blum hinges well with just a few thousandths play. Well worth the cost - consider that it's only about 50% more than a non-carbide bit and will stay sharp many times longer. Highly recommended. Couple pictures uploaded.
