Pro-Fit
Boorwerk was founded in Amsterdam in 1929 as a drill manufacturer. After the second world war Boorwerk has evolved as an importer and distributor of professional tools. In the last ten years we have returned to manufacturing. This time not for drills, but for hole saws. After almost 100 years we are back where we started; making holes.
We have been selling hole saws for more than 50 years. Since the present owner took over the company the development of tools under our own brand name, ProFit, has taken place. With the development and marketing of the Multi Purpose hole saws, followed by the introduction of the patented hole saw system, growth took an unexpected upswing. Today the ProFit hole saws are successful not only in The Netherlands but also all over Europe.
Boorwerk continues to develop focusing on improvements that bring a real benefit to the customers.

Got the starter kit, 20mm and 32mm with the drill bits. Very easy cutting into wood with the carbide bit and the slot clears away wood bits. Very easy removing the cutter from the shaft with one simple push of the collar button. No more trying to push the waste bit out with a screwdriver. Drilling at an angle, no issues. A game changer, will be replacing my holesaws as required.

Had some to try. Loved them cut holes quickly and nicely and now plan to buy the whole set for what I need. No more burning my way through cabinets and timber with the metal hole saws. Being able to make holes larger by attacing the current hole size and new hole size on the same drill bit makes life simple. Would love that to be the case for 15 - 22 but can understand it being too small. Maybe a double with 22 set back a bit would be a solution.

These are a game changer, such a simple idea but a brilliant one,, hole cutting has never been a problem, getting the cut out has. These make the whole process a pleasure. I promise you buy these and all your other cutters will go in the shed or bin.

Very impressed so far (although I've only used the starter kit 20mm / 25mm). Such a time saver both drilling out your hole and especially the removal of the plug. I would definitely recommend and will myself be investing in the full set.

Excellent bit of kit. The speed and cleanliness of the hole saw is brilliant. I am a cabinet maker, mainly using mdf and birch ply. My old method for a clean hole was a large forstner bit. Would 100% recommend.
Customer service has been great after they reached out to check up on an enquiry I submitted.

Ive used the starter kit have been very good so far they cut through wood a lot easier than a bi-metal hole saw. They will even cut through a light ceramic tile although I’ve only done this twice not sure how it would affect lifespan of product

Bought the starter kit to give these a try, very impressed with the way they slice through kitchen carcasses, the pull back system to get rid of the core makes life so much easier. They are a little more expensive than the usual ones I use, but I will be using these all the time, going to get the pipe work kit next and build from there. Great product

Saw Pro-Fit at a trade show and bought the sparks kit. The cutters are still going strong and noticeably quicker than my Bosch kit. You do pay extra for Pro-Fit but overall for me it’s worth it. Ordered a couple of extra bits online and found delivery quite slow so would like to see it available in the local merchants.

Just taken delivery of the pro fit Plumbers drill set. Can’t stop showing it off. There is a fantastic benefit that the drill set does. It actually allows you to cut a larger hole in the exact place the smaller hole was cut. Normally this would have been almost impossible, with the drill jumping around and scratching and scoring the surface. But with this set it’s a piece of cake, nearly said p@##. You simply use the drill shaft that can take two different dimension hole saws. The original smaller hole at the bottom and the larger diameter hole saw above it. As the hole saws are on the same shaft you are guaranteed to cut a perfectly round larger hole with no scoring or scratching of the surface. The smaller hole saw works as a guide through the smaller hole then when the larger hole saw hits r
The surface it cuts an accurately centred larger hole. 5 out of 5 from me for this set of hole cutters

Wow just wow I can’t believe how easy the holesaw cuts and how quickly you can remove the cut wood from the drill no hacking it with a screwdriver just release and pull. Great invention

Took advantage of the recent offer and have got to say I thought what’s all the hype about they are all same but boy was I wrong lol these are great the core doesn’t get stuck easy to change sizes and cut wood like butter now considering buying full set

I was lucky enough to trail two metal cutters the 20mm and 25mm, both have been outstanding and are still going strong when most others would of lost teeth or become blunt.

For the right trade this is an amazing kit. However if there’s a chance that you may hit nails or metal then use a cheaper alternative as it trashes the cutting teeth.
On the whole though, a really valuable kit.

The profit carpenters kit is the best hole saw kit there is, I have used many hole saws over the years and everyone except the profit I’ve had problems with either the teeth burning the material or the wood plug getting stuck in the cutter and having to use a screwdriver to get the plug out and most times you get a nice cut on your fingers from the teeth! But not anymore these profit cutters are the best there is, I know there’s another brand out there that’s almost the same but only the profit lets you get the plug out with no fuss or bother. I bought the carpenter set and was so impressed I’ve bought a who load more different sizes. You can also use them on alsorts of laminates, worktops and get a perfect hole every time. Even when the teeth get a little blunt I just give it a quick once over with a diamond file and I have a brand new cutting edge.i have drilled over 600 holes with one cutter before it needed sharpening you just can’t get better than that. Well done profit! Any tradesman buying these will NOT be unhappy with this product!

Excellent tools had two of these to test out only used the one size up to yet but it was top class, cut through real easy no real effort needed and it looked like new still after using it, well made and a lot more heavy duty looking than your usual tank cutter, I usually use a tank cutter for this type of job but as you know after a few uses you may have the odd tooth missing and it starts to wonder not with this straight through no messing around and nice and neat! The price is a bit on the high side when you compare them to a cheap set of tank cutters but if it's something you use on a regular basis it may well be worth spending that much more, they look as though they will last the test of time we will see!!
