    Sweet!

    Very fast hole-making. Really chews through the wood. I got the 3/8" and now I want a whole set. Fits in a 1/4" impact driver which makes for quick tool changes. Also works fine in a drill of course with the hex shank it's a very sure grip with no chance of spinning and galling the shaft. It has a brad-point tip, 3/8" does anyway, so no self-feeding, maybe larger ones have a snail. But this needs no help penetrating, at least on softwood. Great for clearing bulk waste from a mortise, drilling for carriage bolts, dowels or pins, many other use cases I'm sure. Aggressive geometry might be best suited for softwood, I don't know, but that's the Japanese carpenter's stock in trade and suits my purposes. Other reviewers may be able to say more about how it behaves in North American hardwoods. Will definitely be getting more and recommend.
