Pointier drill bits to drill steel ?

[Leu Custom]

Here's my two cents on the topic. A center drill is fine to start or spot a hole, its just alittle grabby, so be carefull , or just use a clamp to clamp the piece of steel down. split point drills are the way to go, they are thinner at the chisel point so they tend to walk less (the point finds thew center punch mark easier, also less force to drill as the center of the drill has no speed and if the point is thinner its easier to drill the hole.

I routinely drill 3/8 or larger holes in A2 or D2 no problem, think your drill is dull.

Yes, it was definitely dull ! Got a new bit and going through the steel again like butter !

Thanks for all the replies guys ! I appreciate it !
