We have carried this style of 170 piece set for over a year, but as an ordinary twist drill set. It took a while for us to get it made up as brad point drills (which are most useful for drilling into wood) but we finally succeeded, and we're very pleased to bring it to you.

We all use certain common bit sizes (1/8, 1/4, 3/8", etc.) most frequently, which makes them the sizes that get lost, broken or dulled most quickly. If your drill set has just one of each size, and the size you depend on goes bad, you're stuck. So what do you do? Go out and buy another set, with one in each size? Too wasteful. Now there's another way.

Made up of 19 individual inch sizes with 5 to 10 bits per size, this set of 170 Journey's Brad Point Drills ensures that you'll never again run out of that necessary favorite size bit. The size range is from 1/16 to 3/8". We are happy to have ben able to have this special set made up for our customers. It's very handy and a great value—only about $.50 per bit.

Very disappointed
Reviewed By:   (Portland, OR) 
Received this set for Christmas and numerous sizes would not drill at all. Same problem as mentioned before by Bob Zeliff but seemingly more widespread. I have been attempting to exchange my set since February to no avail. I am extremely frustrated with the whole process. I wish you much better luck than I if you order this!

It unfortunately has taken longer than we had hoped to acquire replacement bits. We sincerely regret the delay, Michael, and apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this has caused. The replacements, however, are now on there way - please let us know  if there are any further concerns.

Just got an update on my problem with 3/8th inch factory defect. Garrett Wade now has the replacement they are sending me. While we all have problems from time to time, it is how we fix them is the measure. Well done!

It’s the least we can do! We hope the replacements will give you many years of good use.

Great Idea
Reviewed By:   (Bridport, Vermont) 
This set is a great idea. I have used a few of the brad point smaller sizes with very good results. However last week I tried the 3/8s and it would not bite into the wood even with substantial pressure on the drill. I tried another bit...same problem. In looking at the bits, they are misground at the factory. I check all 5 in my set..the same results. These clearly are factory defects. Have not gotten a response from Garrett Wade to my problem.

Response By: Garrett Wade Tech Department
