Protoolreviews.com called me out when I did this test, after doing their own independent testing, they drew the same conclusion that I did. I took before photo's of the tip's, that's why they were out of the package. after doing a little more research on the matter, your conclusions seem to be verified, so in that case thanks for taking the time and effort to do this test, although i wouldn't consider buying these particular bits (in my mind, Wera bits are far superior than any on the market) i can see how potentially you've saved certain people some money. i hope you can understand why i wrote what i did, im not one to blindly believe everything i see or hear, especially when i know that person is bias and if it's going to potentially influence decisions i'm going to make.

i might have believed this test had the tester newly opened both packages in front of the camera. who knows what kind of tampering he did to the bits, for example he could have easily removed the temper or hardness of the steel with a regular flame torch.

these guys are idiots, that was a rubbish review, they didn't do any tests on torque and when the drills started cutting out rather then being honest and saying they cut out too early, they started making excuses like the drill bits dull or they were pushing too hard. i dont care what anyone says but those drills should have been able to go through that timber with that spade bit extremely easily, even on the top gear (which by the way is the correct gear when using a spade bit)
