I was skeptical because of the low price, but it sharpened my dull bits perfectly enough to finish my deck project.
It’s a simple, clever little tool. It takes a little practice to get the hang of the angle, but it works great for the price.
Great value for money. I’ve already saved more than the cost of the tool by not having to buy new bits this month.
