Wait, really? Their skill saws and drills are great, but a tiny piece of metal is where they skip corners?

Ya, unbelievable, isn't it? DeWalt bits are soft and wear out/strip way too fast. DeWalt is in the same group as Black and Decker and I think that division makes the bits and just slaps the DeWalt name on them. Milwaukee and Makita bits last far longer and usually have better features. I recently got a pack of Diablo bits to try out, their blades and concrete drill bits are top notch, and so far the bits seem to be also.

Ryobi bits are the worst. Some will immediately break. The bits with open ends to fit other bits aren't even to size and the bits you put in them aren't snug and will fall out. First time any bit goes off the track it immediately strips. Some just break on light usage. The steel just breaks in half.

I presume instead of coal coke for carbon, they substituted shit, which while it does have some carbon produces an inferior product.
