Well the drills dull too, after not that many holes. You notice it most  
when you break one by accident, and the new one cuts much better. Some of  
my drills make a burr in the copper because they are dull. But drills are  
cheap, saw blades are not.

We are cutting glass after all, let's not forget that ;-)
