@b38g2000prf.googlegroups.com:

Those drill sets are so cheap, it is not worth my time to inventory
drills, I just buy more sets.


I find the opposite. Those Chinalloy bits are so poorly made of such
a lousy alloy, and so badly ground, that they last about 1/10 the hole
depth of good American bits. They're also often not precisely of the
correct diameters.

I'd rather spend my money on bits I can periodically re-touch and have
them last years.
