I do have a couple of Fisch bits and there is no comparison in the quality of the tool.
However, this entire set cost the same as a single Fisch, so one needs to weigh the usage requirements.
The Irwin cutting edges are rough and some of the bits had nicks in the cutting edges. The finish of the grind is also very rough.
Do these work? Yes, they do.
Will they hold up ? Not under heavy use. I only drilled a few holes, and they dull fast. Even when new, they require more pressure to cut.
Final comment is that these are a good buy for the woodworker who only needs to drill the occasional hole, as this design bit does make a smoother hole.
If you make a living woodworking, get the Fisch, it will be cheaper in the long run.
