    hollow ground (Not for drilling dirt, but...."
    Unfortunately, I had to drill holes through wood into dirt. That dulled the edge. I previously used Stanley bits which seemed OK. But I never was successful at sharpening them. I had noticed that these bits had unusual looking cutting edges. Once I started sharpening I realized that the broad edges are hollow ground. . Worked for a while with a triangular file and dang, it cuts pretty well. Altogether much nicer than the old Stanley bits.
