The teeth feel much catchier after filing them with a triangular jeweler's saw (left half is done), but it still takes a minute of rocking the but back and forth to get through 3/4" plywood.

Buy a new one, or better yet a set of forstner bits. Holesaws suck in comparison when it comes to quality. Takes a bit longer to cut large holes tho.

Yeah, very happy with my Forstners which I have up to 1-1/4" I think.
