Abstract
Aspects of the subject technology relate to tools, system and methods related to a drilling tool that is fabricated using a bimetallic member that is subjected to an infiltration process. The method can include having an amount of precipitation hardenable steel and an amount of another type of steel. The precipitation hardenable steel and the other type of steel are metallurgically bonded to form a bimetallic member including a casting mandrel portion and a drill string connection portion. A reinforcing powder is infiltrated with a binder while in contact with the casting mandrel portion to form a metal matrix composite about the casting mandrel portion. A cutting structure is fabricated into the metal matrix composite of the drilling tool.
