My Lowes is currently listing all Irwin/Marples router bits on clearance. They seem to be around 25% off, so around $25 per bit. These are made on Israel, not China, but I’ve never heard anything about them, one way or another.
Does anyone have any experience with these? Worth it?

Usually Irwin Marples is a pretty good name for woodworking blades.

you get what you pay for when it comes to router bits, I’v learnt long ago cheap router bits are not good and good router bits are not cheap.

Are WhiteSide bits worth the premium? Made a few hours away just outside of Charlotte, but of course they’re not cheap.

I don’t know if u get some bits on clearance, even if they don’t last, they maybe worth it.
