impressive drill bit performance
first time trying drill america tools for our garage setup and i am genuinely impressed. the black and gold oxide finish reduces friction quite well during continuous operation. it fit into the standard chuck without any issues thanks to the reduced shank design with flats. clean and accurate entry holes every single time.

solid build quality
was working on some heavy fabrication work in the workshop and needed something sturdy for tough metals. this m2 steel bit handled the load easily without wearing down. the 135 degree split point really helps because it starts drilling immediately on contact and doesnt slip around. packaging was okay and delivery was quick.
