Now that ice is over I can write a full season review. Cuts like a knife through butter and no issues at all. Left my gasser in storage all winter. I did have to buy an extension near the end as we were at the bottom and was easy to put on and drilled jyst as good as without. We also opened old holes, side by sides etc. and no issues there either. Totally impressed.

Lightweight, ice- eating machine. Using a Dewalt Flexvolt hammer drill w/6ah battery, drilled 72 holes in 21 '' ice w/o swapping out battery. I wish Eskimo made a tube for transport.

Great product. Drilled 100+ holes this season and still using original blades. Lightweight and durable. Getting the bit on the drill is sometimes hard with the guard so close to the chuck. Other than this small issue no complaints

I already owned an 8 '' k- drill( 7 5/8 '') and decided to try the Pistol bit based on a recommendation from a coworker. The cut is smoother and I get more holes out of a battery with similar ice conditions. Since the centering point was added I can make fish ponds as well for those ice derby days. Has been a great addition to my ice gear.

Excellent quality and it seems to be durable and well made. I was able to make several holes very easy since the blades are sharp

8 inch auger bits are commonly made from high-carbon steel or other durable metals to ensure strength and longevity. Some models may also feature coatings to enhance resistance to corrosion and wear. The choice of material can affect the bit's performance and durability in different drilling conditions.
When selecting an 8 inch auger bit, consider the type of material you will be drilling into and the specific application. Look for features such as a centering point for precision, and check the bit's design for efficiency in cutting.

The performance of an 8 inch auger bit can be influenced by several factors, including the material it is made from, the sharpness of the cutting edges, and the design of the bit.
