These are the only branded bits I use in my little shop. I have spoken directly to the factory and have always experienced the best in southern hospitality. Really good people.
A chisel rounded off a block of cherries and a block of walnut, I got it very clean with no holes. It's neatly cut out of the box and I'm very happy with it. I will be buying more bits from Whiteside as I increase my harvesting/woodworking skills.
Perfect size for a round lure. If you're on the borderline between a 1/8" round and a 1/4" round, check out the Whiteside 2005 3/16" bit. No burning after use. Made in America. Lots of carbide.
