These are the sharpest Forstners I have used.

A number of years ago I bought an entire set of Forstners for 15 bucks! Cheap Chinese crap but they did work great under light use.

In the past I've bought mostly CMT (now Jesada) for forstner and router bits, but they don't do the 1/16" sizes...

thanks salty, I'll check those out as well.

They are right off Jefferson Blvd about 1/4 mile from the I-95 exit.
