Review on πŸ”ͺ Freud 42 104 Bearing Flush Shank: High-Performance Tool for Precise Cutting by Bryan Reed

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't last very long

The flush cutting tip didn't last very long, I used it to trim the edges of 3 boxes totaling 60-100 feet. During that time it worked really well initially, maybe 40-50 feet but by the 3rd box I clearly noticed that it was a flush cut but also added 2 separate crease lines where the chisel lost some metal. Thus, in 50 feet of use, he lost 2 small pieces of metal. I've also used a cheap 12 bit set that cost me $35 and they haven't been damaged for the same amount of use and they cost a lot less. Not at all what you would have expected from a Freud beat. Might buy again in the future as I'm hoping I just received a product from a bad batch as this is the first bad part I've used. I put 2 stars as I hope it's a coincidence and the next one will be better.
