Actually this Chinese drill bit is pretty good cuts straight and fast. I just wanted a backup bit just in case i screw up. (been happening a lot lately) I just chucked in the new bit to see how it would do. I didn't expect any difference. I did contact Enco and they refunded my money. I ordered some better quality bits today, a short one and a jobber size. My bandsaw blade (more US junk) broke today too so I ordered 3 of those. This was a new blade also I think I got to use it 4 times in all. Things are just going the wrong way lately.
I always say if you can throw on a shirt in the dark and not have it on backwards then you are going to have good luck - my shirts have been backwards for a long time now.
