This Friday while on my way home from school I decided to stop at a local pawn shop and I found this Freud router in the shelf. I would assume it is made by someone else though. Have you guys ever seen any tools made by Freud?
Yup Nicholas, Freud makes (or made….im not sure if they still sell their own brand although my local hardware store has a couple on the show floor) a whole lineup of some arguable very good routers and naturally blades and bits too!
I knew they made bits and blades. Aren’t they owned by Bosch?
Yea, Freud was bought out by Bosch a few years ago!
Yessir, Bosch has ’em! I think the router line wine t down under so to speak. I can’t find anything on the site for their routers, so if I had to guess, Brock’s has those routers for sale and they’ve been sitting!

Maybe the company suffered from premature product launch.
That’s pretty interesting, wonder if they’re any good?
