What's an "anti kickback" router bit when it's at home?
Pardon my ignorance.

A router bit that just wont relax....


seriously.

Most modern router bits are anti-kickback.

cheers

I have purchased several of these bits. In a word? "Underwhelming"

They're not bad but they're not exactly the greatest either. At today's conversion rate, the cost is about $Au6.50. I don't know what shipping would be. If you purchased several bits, would the cost be about $Au10? is that a bargan for a bargan bit?

In that case, they are not worth the hassle then are thay? Not for regular stuff. Maybe an odd profile or three might be ok.

Consider that I can buy a solid tungsten spiral bit for about $9 and a straight bit for about $14. Both excellent quality, and dare I say, will outlast 3 or 4 of them bargain bits.

So, great for odd shapes, but the workhorses don't bother.
