Review on CMT 861 548 11 Beading 16 Inch Carbide Tipped by Chris Russell

There is not much to say about the cutter. The blades were sharp and cut well through the cottonwood with little or no burning. The bearing was of good quality and the shaft and head were machined to perfection. The paint on the cutterhead seems to hold up well and cleans up easily, although I haven't tried it on oily woods yet. For the price, I'm generally happy with the CMT bits.
