Abigail ★★★★★

The AstraHP coating on these bits really shines—after trimming a dozen pine boards, the edges still look factory fresh. They fit my trim router perfectly and the 1/4" shank locks in tight without wobble.

Ruby ★★★★★

The AstraHP coating on these bits really helps the wood slide off cleanly without gumming up. I’ve already used the 1/4″ roundover on a dozen projects and it’s still sharp as new.

Michael ★★★★★

Bought these to replace a worn-out set and the AstraHP coating is holding up noticeably better on oak—no burning after a dozen cuts. The 1/4" shanks fit my trim router perfectly and the bits came sharp right out of the case. Six pieces covers most of what I do daily.
