Sharp, works well, seems quality.
I had never heard of or used a steelex bit. I bought two sizes to check them out. The quality seems good and they're both sharp. I will not worry about spending a little more to purchase larger bits in the future.

Gets the job done.
Well even though this is far from being a 4 star forstner bit. I gave it 4 stars and I will explain why I purchased this bit to install my lee valley front vise. The vise installation called for 2 5/16 diameter hole at 9/16 deep. It is a really odd size hole and the fact that it is just a recessed hole and not a through hole makes it even more of a challenge. The reason being is because Steelex is the only company that makes a forstner bit this size. The only other option is using a 2 5/16 hole saw but those are for through cuts. So with the hole saw you would have to drill a hole in a piece of wood with the hole saw and use that cut as a template for a top bearing flush trim router bit and plunge cut a 9/16 deep hole into the wood that you need. This is time consuming and just ends up costing to much money for drilling to recessed holes. Which was the way I was going to go at first until I came across this steelex bit. Now the reason I gave this bit 4 stars is because this is the only forstner bit of this size on the market. So when I found the bit it was like looking at a premium steak dinner after I had been stuck on a deserted island for a month, which to me deserves 4 stars right off the bat. Now the bit quality wise is not worth 4 stars. Its a 3 star bit at best, because it gets the job done. Nothing like the many Freud forstner bits I already own. The bit is not very sharp and requires a significant amount of pressure to cut and when it does cut it leave a fairly rough hole with tear out on the top. Even though it take a fair amount of pressure to cut you have to be careful not to use to much pressure because then it will cause even more tear out. The biggest upside is that even with the saw teeth on the bit it cuts a flat bottom. With that being said. This is not a bit that you are going to buy and use on a regular basis. It's like an item you purchase at harbor frieght. You buy it to use one time and you toss it or you stick it in some dark dusty corner of your shop in the misc box. I am sure I am not the only one that has run into this problem with the lee valley vise. I know lots of people buy it because its a great vise at a fair price. This a great one time bit to use for installing a front vice on a bench that serves purely to be function and not pretty. Now if you are one of those people that are spending 2500 bucks to build a solid maple bench that is more pretty than it is functional then you don't want to use this bit. Then again out of all the work benches I have built and used I have never understood why people spend so much money on building a workbench. First of all in a year it is going be all dented and chewed up like any other work bench unless you are just one of those people that built it because you could and never use it. Second a torsion style work bench is just as stable as a solid top work bench without the price and precision that has to go into laminating it, milling it, and flattening it. There is a common misconception about torsion box style benches which makes people think they need a solid top bench. Woodcrafting, like chiseling and planing require a perfectly flat service. A very heavy surface so that it does not move and a robust surface so that the vibrations are minimized. You get all of that and more with a torsion style bench. Torsion box benches are extremely heavy. I usually frame my benches with 2x4 then make the grid with with plywood or MDF. Trust me a 2x4 framed bench with plywood grid and a sheet of plywood or mdf on the bottom and on the top is no lightweight and if you want to make it more robust you can simply make less the amount of spacing in the grid or add another sheet of plywood to the top. MDF for the most part always even and flat. So as long as you built your frame and grid evenly flat then the MDF top is going to be even and flat. Plywood can sometimes have bow or twist but that usually works itself out when you glue and nail down the plywood top to the frame and grid. Its much cheaper. You are talking about a torsion box top costing maybe 200 bucks versus a solid maple top costing you 1200 bucks. Another big plus to torsion box style bench is that you can put a sacrificial piece of hardboard on top of it which costs like 10 bucks for a 4'x8' sheet and simply change it out when ever it gets beat up.

Impressed
So I got this to make a 1/4" deep recess into a 2 inch piece of aluminum and it performed extraordinarily well. I have no doubt it would have performed just as well, if not better, in wood. I think it's actually still sharp enough to use it again for wood - I hope I get to use it again. I would definitely buy this brand again. Very impressed ????

works in theory
This bit (2.75") is well-made and even comes with its own handy wooden storage box. But it's a big piece of steel. Too big for the average home drill press to turn against the friction of the wood it's designed to bore. But clearly that's the machine the manufacturers intended because the shank is turned down to 1/2". So my uncle chucked it into his big Lagun milling machine. Plenty of torque. (Well, if you can get it.) There isn't a flat section on the shank for the chuck to secure against. So the bit must be turned very slowly to avoid it spinning in the chuck. Could a flat section be machined onto the shank? Yes. Is it worth the time? Not for a project as small as the one this bit was purchased for.

It work like any other Forestner Bit.
I drilled 180 holes already with it and it worked great.

Big timber
Built deck rails out of timber and this held up to 100’s of holes drilled. Go slow and let the bit do the work.

Works great!
Only bored 38 holes in pine, but stayed sharp all the way through.

Not 13/16” or anywhere near it.
Easily the worst quality Forster type bit I have ever encountered, even by Chinese standards......Yes, it’s Chinese.

Drill bit
Let me preface and say we were drilling through 2 inches of thick barn board. The bit struggles to bite. The bit will yank ur wrist right around. The bit does seem durable, it’s still fairly sharp. It’s ok. It did the job just not well. A lot of these bits have hex ends on them where as this one is just circular. The circular end spins in ur drill under high pressure which is infuriating. In summary it’s a well built bit that needs a hex end on it and it just isn’t that ideal for heavy work. Small projects or lighter duty I’m sure it would be better.

Not worth the money
Purchased a year ago. Used it once when we purchased my husband said he thought our drill had something wrong with it, so didn’t think anything of it. A year later my husband goes to use the bit using a new drill and it’s actually the bit it self. Doesn’t cut and disappointed. Try another one this one ain’t worth the 50+ dollars.
