"Regardless of what kind of power tool you are using, there is one universal truth: if you install a Freud blade (or bit in this case), it will perform better. I needed to do something with my new router, and the only bit I could fine was a dull / burnt, steel, off-brand bit I had laying around."
"I needed to cut some slots for tiny loose tenons in some doll furniture and this worked great on oak, cherry and maple."
"I've tried couple other brands, they all break when pushed too hard."
"In the week that I have had it, it has cut arches out of 1/2" CDX plywood, curved template cuts out of 1/2" Birch ply, mortised for concealed joist hangers in old growth cedar 4x6s and is still as sharp as when I took it out of the box."
"Combined with the dust collection system on my OF1400 EQ, and it was amazing how clean the job was cutting through plywood."
"deep mortises), router bits such as Whiteside or CMT, are better choices."
"I was cutting a 1/4" deep dado through pine at 12,000rpm with a very conservative feed rate and it just snapped."
