KOWOOD PRO Flush Trim Router Bit(18 Flutes) 1/2" Shank,2-1/2"Cut Length

This thing is a beast of a router bit, by far my largest one. This will tear a chunk of flesh out of you, so turn down the speed on your full-size router (the Bosch is the minimum I'd use) and take your time. Trim as much material with a jigsaw or bandsaw beforehand because this thing can grab. It leaves a pretty decent finish, but I do have fine lines corresponding to the separated blades, so just be aware that you'll need some finish sanding if you are doing fine woodworking. I bought this to rough trim stacked construction lumber and shop furniture, so its good enough for me.

I was surprised at how smoothly this bit runs. I used it to flush cut an 1 1/2 thick counter top to a sink opening. The resulting cut was surprisingly smooth to the touch and didn't require much sanding to be finish ready. The tear out was very manageable and even avoidable if you just cut a little slower. Overall I'm very happy with this bit so far. Hopefully it keeps a sharp edge for a couple years.

The best result I've seen so far for curved walnut. Haven't tried on maple and such. Very affordable.

Was a little intimidated by it at first. But this router bit is amazing. Very easy to use and got excellent results. I turned the rpm down on my router and it was very smooth and i became comfortable with it almost instantly. I got better results with this bit than i did with my $250 bit from another “bits” company.Another advantage is the height of this blade lets me double up my stack and do two pieces at the same time. Again, be safe with it and you’ll get great results. It did amazing with both long grain and the end grain.

I used this bit to clean up a section of board I wanted to joint to another. The face of the board was so clean I didn't need to sand it or run a hand plane over it. I've only used the bit for maybe 4' of 1 1 /2" hardwood, so I can't speak to it's durability. However the initial use was great.

The media could not be loaded. This router bit absolutely eats it up. We really really like it. Yes it is aggressive. That’s what you want with good work woodworking tools. The rim speed on some of our cutters is pushing 125 mph. Woodworking cutters can throw anything across the shop. That does not make them a bad cutter. On a router table you need to learn to use an anchor pin. Also proper patterns and jigs to hold your product is extremely important. The router bit is not to blame for operator error. This router bit has my full recommendations. I have been building kitchens since 1997. There you go.

I saw it was made in China. So I was doubtful. But had good reviews. Tried it out on my router table. Turned the speed down low as it’s rather large. Wonderful cutting action. Smooth cut in 3/4” plywood. Couldn’t ask for a better flush trim bit. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

This is great for cutting out patterns. Be cautious with end grain, my block got chewed up pretty good when the flutes bit in. I was able to save the piece, but be careful with this one. This bit cuts fast and smooth if you handle the piece right. Because it works quickly, be extra careful for your fingers!
