Yes, that is the set I bought. I am not an expert on machine tools, but I was going through drill bits left and right. So far these are holding up really nicely.

I bought this Cleveland drill bit set about a year ago. It's 115 pieces and I got it on sale on Amazon for $550. It's now a $700 set, but I am sure you could shop around for a better deal. So far I've drilled 100+ holes with them through metal and I am super pleased. As other have suggested...
