Victoria O. ★★★★★

Cutting dovetails in hard maple came out glass-smooth with zero tear-out on the 3/8" depth pass. The AstraHP coating definitely helps the bit slide through the cut without any burning, even on the second dozen joints.

Kevin ★★★★★

Used this bit for my first set of half-blind dovetails and the Astra coating made chip-out almost nonexistent on the walnut. The 1/4 shank ran smoothly at 14,000 RPM without any vibration. Really pleased with how clean the 3/8 depth cut came out.

Ava B. ★★★★★

Installed a set of drawer fronts using this bit and the Astra coating really helped it glide through the maple without any burning. The 1/2″ diameter cut a clean, snug joint that fit together perfectly on the first try.
