From the Manufacturer

Since 1972, Amana Tool has been producing router bits and has become the global leader in its field. In fact, the company was the first manufacturer to produce router bits according to the Holz BG German standard for safety and quality. This standard contains rules that determine the structure and quality of the tool's material in order to create the safest environment for the user. From its beginning, Amana Tool has always used the highest quality materials, and its tools are produced using unique technologies, a majority of which were developed and built by the company's engineers following decades of testing and experience. For example, Amana Tool uses carbon alloy steel for its router bits that contains vanadium particles. This improves the structural integrity of the steel and prevents corrosion and defects in the internal structure of the material that can lead to cracks and breaks. High-tech machinery processes the carbon alloy steel to manufacture the router bodies in a single clamping. This yields router bits with superior balance, centricity, precision and symmetry. This reversible assembly is designed to cut window sash and glass door parts, including rails, stiles, mullions and muntins, on stock between 1-1/8-Inch and 1-3/4-Inch thick. Assembly includes an ogee profile cutter, a rabbet cutter, one bearing, a 1/2-Inch shank arbor, spacers, shims, and washers.

The only drawback was not having the companion bit available with this!

Amana is no longer made in Israel, but is now made in Taiwan. Guess what? So is the quality. Last Amana bit I'll buy. Why pay for top quality when I can buy any Taiwanese bit for a third the price?

Although it does an excellent job at cutting, it does not form any tenons on the "rail" ends. Tenons make a window frame much stronger. Had I known that this bit did not make tenons, I would not have purchased this item.

Read the part description. Was to come with step by step full color instructions by Lonnie Bird. Do not know who he is, but there were no instructions. The instructions were the reason I went with this bit over one of the less expensive bits. When I figure out how to use the bit I will rate the bit.

When I got this router bit it came assembled for one of the two profiles it can cut. It looked new but when I tried to assemble it to cut the mating profile there was a spacer missing. I called Amana and the first thing they asked is did I purchase a used bit. I told them no. The bit was not advertised as used and when I ordered it I assumed it was brand new. I ordered it through Amazon.com but it came from a place called D&K Tools. Amana has never heard of them. Amana told me they would send me the missing spacer and I'm still waiting for it as of this review. However the bit is rock solid cutting the one profile I am able to cut and it looks like it will do the same for the other profile when I get the missing spacer. I am assuming this is a mistake on either DK's part or Amana's and since this is my first purchase from Amazon it has left me a little worried about ever making another on this web site. Time will tell. I gave it only 3 stars because the bit is only 1/2 here. IF the missing part fixes the problem and that part of the bit cuts like the first then this bit is definatly a 5 star bit.
