Anyone own or use these bits? Are they worth the price?
Opinons please.

They're supposed to be pretty good.

MLCS is having some Katana Flush-trim bits on sale right now... (I think... I don't think it's over)

Hi Ken

I do and yes they are worth the extra price, it's the higher end bits for MLCS.

Thanks Joe, Bob.
Reason I was asking is, well, I kinda blame it on you Bj, lol been doing some shopping thru MLCS of late and saw they had that brand on sale. Am only curious about them. Perhaps when the pocket book allows may purchase some.

Thanks again.

Ken,

I own several MLCS bits, but no katana, so my reply may not qualify. But if you hav'nt already tried pricecutter, you might want to give them a try.

Every few months they put a handful of bits on sale for $9.99. I can order a few online monday morning before leaving for work and they'll beat me home on wednesday. Thats with paying there standard shipping(about 6 bucks) and I'm in California. They are a little sharper and seem to be a bit higher quality than my last couple MLCS orders that took nearly 2 weeks to arrive.

Hi Rusty, thanks. I've ordered a few bits from PriceCutter before, haven't had any problems with their bits. I like speed of their shipping department too. But, sometimes, I gotta go with free shipping even if does take a bit longer. LOL
I mainly use MLCS, Rockler, Grizzly, Woodcraft and Pricecutter for my bits. It all depends on how much I'm wanting to spend and what type of bit I'm looking for.

Hamlin,
It would be great if you could rank the bits you use. It would be a great place for others to start collecting.
