    hi irving
    i usually take the sharpness off of a drill by holding a sheet of wet and dry on a flat surface with a little light oil on it and rub the cutting edge untill the sharpness is off of it,
    i also push the drill bit into some soft soap for lubrication,may seem a bit mad but it seems to work for me in brass.

    Thats what I mean't the cetting edge needs to be removed as in Robin's picture.
