Pros & Cons
Pros
The bit is still in its original container. Anyways, amazing but. Great bit. Works great, shows up as. Well worth the money.
Used this in a dewalt dw618 to surface a 4’ wide maple slab using a shop made *. The perfect router bit for cutting 10mm dados in wood. Use it to machine plastics, it leaves a great finish even during roughing cuts.
The cutter goes straight and it doesn't care if it suddenly hits where a branch was in hardwood. Smooth cuts no tear out, or burning or damage discoloration.
Cons
The carbide tip on the bit separated while planning off 1/8th of an inch on its first walnut slab. The entire carbide edge of one side of the edge of the bit was gone.

Even using this thing properly with safety gear and a tough apron do not take this specific one lightly.
The bit was still sharp and cut 10 mortises 1 3/4 inch deep on the ends of the table.
Price
Great router bit at a great price.
Bit worked great and was alot cheaper than in the store.
I could use the 1/4" straight bit that came in a set of various bits costing about what this one bit costs.
And again, not saying your whole set needs to be these--they're not cheap.
Shipping
Fast delivery and the bit was exactly what i was looking for.
Rather, it is a comment on the time that elapsed between ordering it and receiving it (11 days).
But it took so long to ship that i finally gave up waiting.
Packaging/appearance
Careful opening the box and grabbing it out, as you can maybe see in other reviews people have bled themselves.
Competitiveness
Well worth the money compared to other brands.
I don't know of a brand that is better than freud for router bits.
The 1/2" shank transfers more power for any brand, but it's still a feature.
