Review on Superior Carbide Router Tools: Unmatched Cutting Diameter and Premium Bits by Loren Schmidt

The phrase "You get what you pay for" applies particularly to tools and especially to milling cutters. This is an expensive piece well worth the investment. This is a good quality carbide that is quite sharp so no further sharpening is required. You are paying for the quality of the carbide and excellent finish and sharpness. I have ordered several cheaper cutters and cutter sets and also ordered and used more expensive cutters. Expensive beats have a much better value. More expensive bits of good quality will last longer and cut better. Ruining the workpiece because I bought a cheap milling cutter is a wrong save. Trust me I made it. This is a 1/2 inch diameter helical cutter that is very useful for cutting grooves and slots. It leaves a smooth bottom and cuts quickly, helping to hold the workpiece firmly on the router base or table. The up-cut function pulls chips out of the slot when cutting and also allows the drill to cut faster. The only potential downside is that the surface of the workpiece can be a bit more uneven, especially with thinner materials. There are several good ways to avoid this that can be found online. The advantages of using a rising edge bit far outweigh this disadvantage. The sharpness of this knife has so far prevented bad edges. Another type of helical milling cutter is the milling cutter, which provides a smoother finish on the workpiece but has the disadvantage of tending to push the workpiece away. from the base of the cutter, it also pushed the chips into the flute, making it difficult to keep clean and slowing down the cut. It is less popular than the straight cut drill. For this we pay for the quality of materials and production, which leads to high-quality results in our woodworking. This bit is very important!
