A couple of days ago somebody mentioned that they used this set of drill bits from HF.

As a new pen turner, I only have a 7mm drill bit, but would like to start making pens other than slimlines. It looks like this set of bits would work for just about every kit that I am interested in. So, before I go out and buy it, I was wondering who else uses this set. Do you recommend it? How does it hold up? I am trying to save some money here, but is this one of those situations where I'll just end up buying higher end drill bits to replace these fairly quickly anyway?
 
I have the HF set and a drill doctor. I also purchased a set of metric bits for less than $25 but I can't find them at HF now.
