Thumb Score: +1

1/4-inch shank, carbide tipped, this set includes a variety of shapes for edge-forming, surface-forming, straight cuts, mortising and joinery.

At $ 2.30 per bit this is an excellent starter set for someone wanting to experiment with routing techniques and learning how to use a router rather than destroying high dollar Freud bits.

This set was a Black Friday deal at Lowe’s back in 2017 for $ 50, but has hovered around $ 85-$ 100 since. The set was $ 110 at Home Depot, but it looks like they’ve reduced their price to $ 71 [homedepot.com], keeping pace with Lowe’s. Amazon is only available from Marketplace sellers, so no competitive PM.
