#Woodworking nerds,
Can I get a dovetail bit in metric, or are they exclusively imperial?

Being in Europe, I'm aware only of metric bits.
But if I need a drill bit slightly larger than 6 mm, I go for a ¼" one on eBay, because if I ask a 6,35 mm drill bit in local shops they say it's a very special (= expensive) pro order.
Anyway a good practice for dovetails is to cut separately the sides, to avoid to have a side cut in climbing mode, which could splinter.
@GustavinoBevilacqua So they exist? but I'm not having any luck on Aliexpress. I'll have to reconsider a few things.

I'm not sure I'm following. I'm too new to woodworking and youtube isn't helping much, because apparently woodworking is a usian hobby and they all speak imperial. I'll learn the hard way — experimenting, making mistakes, and wasting money.
Also, in the U.S. wood is far cheaper than in Europe!
Take a look here, they are based in Berlin:
