Great at first but dulls quickly,

This review is from: DEWALT DW6613 1/4 Inch Carbide Burr Bit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I went through two of these to cut eight 14" x 6" holes in my 1950's era home for HVAC vents and *barely* made it. The edge dulls quickly when cutting a mix of thick drywall/plaster. A repeated 'plunging/sawing' action was required to get it to cut effectively. It did make a tough job easy but be prepared to buy a few to get the job done. All spiral saws are sacrifical in nature and will lose their edge quick so no surprises here. Three star rating due to misleading description about long life.

The DEWALT DW6611-1/8-Inch Carbide Dry Wall Burr Bit works well on dry wall but cuts very slowly on plywood and over heats damaging the bit. I would recommend moving to a router and router bit for plywood.

Dewalt made a really nice piece here. I always buy carbide 7 1/4 blades for my saw because they slice through flooring like a hot knife through butter. Put this into the dewalt 18V cutter and off you go, no matter what the material. Carbide holds its edge for years and is a great investment.
Compared to the spiralsaws this is alot less likely to break and can handle dental stone without a problem.
