Lightweight

I reluctantly bought this cause I still own an old gas auger. Lugging that out was always a chore. The new pistol bit is nice and light and made life fun again getting out on the ice. Not to mention that it cuts through the ice with ease. Great product.

Works Awesome!

I used a Milwaukee M18 drill and it would bore a hole just as fast as a gas one, maybe even faster with its instant torque. And it's super light which I really like.

Highly Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the new style of 10” pistol 2.0. Very smooth and better than the 8” one

Awesome Auger

Only got to use it a small handful of times given the fishing season. This auger I paired with the m18 fuel 1/2 inch hammer drill. Game changer and super lightweight tackle!

I Love This Product!

Excellent choice for using a battery powered drill. Cuts extremely well and very lightweight making it easy to transport. Great choice for run and gun!

Good For Traveling Light

It's super light but takes more downward force than I expected. I don't have access to another to know if there is something wrong with mine or if it's normal.

Bad Set Of Blades.

The first time i used it i drilled two holes just fine and the third one i couldn't cut though butter with it. The blades it came with were junk. I sent Eskimo an email and they sent out a new set in a couple of days. I installed the new blades and it cut great for the rest of the winter.

Weight And Durability

For Ice Fishing weight and durability are crucial factors for venturing out to those far reaching spots. This auger set up is not only light but very powerful. I bought the 8inch and cut 25-40 holes through 12 inches of ice with ease. Used it on 20 plus trips this winter and it worked very well.

Great Auger!

The auger works great! It is very sharp and light. I drilled maybe 60 holes so far and I really liked using it.

Nice Tool But…

Nice tool but the wrong blades were on the tool. It barely cut the first time I used it. Contacted the company and they said the blades were probably bad. They sent new blades. To say the least or the most, I wasn’t happy to have to change out the blades on a new tool I just purchased.
