For my Tea House project I picked up one of these bits.
It was the only one of it's kind available locally. I really wanted a Freud seeing it was being bought on the bosses buck, but I couldn't wait to order one. The Woodcraft bit cost about half as much as the Freud bit, and I expected about as much out of it.
Well I was pleasently surprised at how well it worked, and it's design and sharpness. I ran 360 l.f. of W. Red Cedar accross it today and it cut like butter, left a very smooth finish and best of all perfectly fitting joints. The stock I was using was straight from the supplier, 3/4" x 6" rough on one side so there was a lot of inconsitancy, but all my joints lined up great.
I recommend the Woodcraft bit.
