Amana Tool has been making router bits and saw blades for Industry for 35 years and all of their tools meet the highest standards for quality. The Timberline series of router bits are a less-expensive alternative for woodworkers who use the bits only occasionally.


However, the Timberline bits are a great value. Like more expensive bits, the Timberline router bits are turned from solid tool-steel and incorporate an anti-kickback cutting design. Additionally, most of the Timberline profile bits feature a shear angle, and multi-axis grinding for super smooth cuts. In order to reduce costs, the carbide on Timberline bits is not as thick as the carbide on the Amana line. This means that you cannot sharpen the bits as many times. For many woodworkers, that is not an issue because they will not sharpen a router bit often enough to wear it out anyway.
