The price is unique, but very durable!

I bought these because they were the size I used the most and by the way they broke the most. Not wanting to buy another set of drill bits that I rarely use, this 12-bit set is an absolute steal. What's even better, they're incredibly durable too. I've used this for pre-drilling prior to countersinking trim nails and still haven't snapped 100 holes later! This is my first time using Champion brand drills and I will definitely use them again. They knock the pants out of my more expensive Bosch…

Pros
  • Made in the USA
Cons
  • Unreliable

Size described differs from actual drill size

Read this and tell us what drill size you think you will receive" Champion US5 Cutting Tools -34/64 Jobber All Purpose Drill Bits - Made in USA (Pack of 6)". If you say 34/64 you are wrong. You get 31/64. Why? You must select the size at the bottom of the display. Why put 34/64 in the product name at all? Someone might say that this is only 3/64 of the norm. It's a mile for our work, so we don't need bits. The bits themselves look good but are of little use given the size not specified in the…

Pros
  • High speed steel treated with black oxide to improve abrasion resistance and coolant adhesion
Cons
  • Available in white only

Good drill bits at a fantastic price

What could be more frustrating than a broken drill bit? There is an opportunity to get a good price per bit by purchasing the entire set, but the larger sizes are rarely needed. Another option is to buy them individually or in pairs and pay a tidy sum for them. I've searched a lot on the web to find smaller sizes (especially this sixteen inch) at a reasonable price. Bingo! These bits are just as strong and the same length (another problem) as Vermont American, Milwaukee, or any other mainstream

Pros
  • General purpose jobber drill bit for drilling low to medium strength metal and wood
