Mutually exclusive terms.

When you going to get out of the cheap seats.

You want brad point drills, try McFeelys, WW Grainger (Same company
these days), McMaster-Carr, Rockler, Lee Valley, etc.

Notice Home Depot & Lowes didn't make the list.

You guys gotta remember, Craftsman doesn't MAKE the stuff, nor does
Granger, McMaster-Carr, Lee Valley,
They all either have them made to their spec or rebrand/package
product from other manufacturers.
The fact they are German and not Chinese means there is a high
likelihood they are reasonable quality - and quite possibly either
identical to, are at least equal to, the product you would buy from
one or more of the referenced suppliers.

Most likely either Miebach, Colt, Famag, or Diemar.

They don't come much better than either of those.
