Madison ★★★★★

Finally a bit that actually matches today's undersized 3/4″ plywood—the 0.72″ cutting diameter gave me snug, clean dados right out of the box. The AstraHP coating really does help it stay sharp through multiple cabinet builds.

Richard R. ★★★★★

The 0.72-inch cut width is spot-on for modern plywood, so the joint comes out snug without any sanding. The triple-flute down-cut design keeps the top edge clean, and the AstraHP coating has held up through a dozen dados so far without any burn marks.

Julian ★★★★★

I’ve been struggling with chipping on plywood dados until this down‑cut bit—the triple flute really leaves a smooth, splinter‑free groove. It’s noticeably quieter than my old spiral bits, too.
