I have to say Freud makes great blades and bits. Bits /4 and 1/2 inch). And reviews on YT say that 1/2" is better for cooler cuts and slower wood speeds. I already use Freud bits (1/4") for some edge work and have never been unhappy with the results. I also have full sets of 1/4" Bits (Stanley) not bearing, resulting in burn marks along the work. This set costs a little more than some woodworking pages, but these pages charge a lot more for shipping, along with shipping dates in 3-4 weeks. I have a project that I need to complete and one month is not enough. Pros: Sturdy and sharp bits, won't chew wood or burn Quality metal, and thin cuts right out of the box Cons: You can get cheaper bits, but you get what you pay for. When they come, the bits are difficult to remove. But I wouldn't call it bad for Beats. Showcase "Made in Italy". Freud cutters are recessed in a rubber/nylon bushing (see pictures). I wore leather work gloves and could not move them. I didn't want to use my pliers for fear of damaging the bits, finish or case so instead I sprayed some penetrant along with Ballistol oil and then used a new glove and plie with jaws that stuck to the leather glove, I could remove everything. The coating on the inner sleeve as well as the shank of each bit makes it easy to remove. No need to drill holes. Instead, it is recommended to keep the bits lubricated (lightly coated with Ballistol) during storage. If I find it difficult later, I can simply rub the shafts with sandpaper to remove 1/1000 for easier storage. I would like to get in touch with Freud on this as they are really great beats and the presentation is nice. It's really frustrating to just remove them (for those who don't know) and can cut your hands. In general, a great bit set for starting routing will outlive the owner.
