EXPERIENCE THE WILDERNESS
Imagine being deep in the wilderness, needing to craft survival tools, but struggling with a flimsy drill that bends or breaks. We've been there, frustrated by tools that just can't handle the rugged demands of outdoor life.
We understand the need for reliable camping and bushcraft tools. That's why we set out to create a drill that could tackle the toughest tasks in the wild.
Driven by our passion for the outdoors, we crafted a hand auger that's as tough as you are. Our tool is designed to handle everything from crafting wooden tools to building survival shelters.
MATERIAL UPGRADE
Increased the stainless steel thickness of the Scottish eye from 1/16 inch to 1/8 inch, reducing deformation and extending the tool's lifespan.
HIGH CARBON STEEL DRILL BIT
High carbon steel drill bit, It's resistant to deformation and breakage, ensuring high hardness for all your drilling needs.
1600°C HIGH TEMPERATURE WELDING
Hand auger is made from heavy-duty stainless steel and high-carbon steel, welded at a scorching 1600°C for a rock-solid bond
STEP ONE
Use a wooden stick to gain leverage
STEP TWO
Turn the auger dill
STEP THREE
Use scotch eyed auger to get a peg
STEP FOUR
Insert peg into the hole

This is a nice auger. The screw is properly tapered so it starts in the wood easily. The weld for the eye is centered and it has about an inch of hex if you want to turn it with a wrench. I was able to easily bore holes in oak and maple. The scotch eye is supposed to be used to help make your tenons and the edge is fairly sharp. It works well enough to get the last little bit of wood off so that your tenons are round and fit in the holes you bored. I like the size of it because you are able to make holes in fairly large pieces of wood. Going with me on my next camping trip. The pouch is made from flimsy fake leather but there is a part that wraps around the screw so protect it.

Camping season in Ohio is just starting as green returns, and I'm looking forward to taking my boys out. We've seen this type of tool on YouTube and discussed getting it specifically for the camp stove in a stump method. We've tested it on some seasoned firewood to ensure it held up with the auger bit drilling, and it worked well. With a larger round log, it would be possible to auger out more than one hole to support two pots. While we're not initially interested in creating "camp furniture" with the doweling end, we can see creating a frame to dry or for functional support of a camp awning.The leather belt sheath protects the tool and is suitable for handling while storing. The additional leather sheath is a suitable method of protecting your hands while using the doweling cutter. All in all, it's a good tool so far, it hasn't broken at the welds yet, but we also haven't tried it on a dense hardwood.

Received in the mail, as pictured.I used a pair of vice grips just below the scotch eye to twist the device. It would work better by putting a stick through the eye, to utilize necessary down force on the tool.The actual drilling bit section was quite sharp.Overall, good quality for what you pay.

Just used it to make a "swedish fire log" and did the trick. It does require alittle downwards pressure to continue drilling deep. And it channels the excess out well. Kinda large ofcourse.

I got this to add to my “things that look cool but I’m really unlikely to ever need/use” drawer. Jokes aside, this thing is well made and sturdy. There were a few dings in the steel but nothing problematic. The drill part came very sharp. I liked that it has a hex area below the eye that you could put a wrench on if needed. The only issues I found were that the eye part was not sharp at all and the inside of the eye had a very rough finish. Nothing that some filing and sanding couldn’t remedy but I shouldn’t have needed to do it at all. The case is handy and the wrap to put around the drill part to hold like a handle is also appreciated. I tested it in pressure treated 4x4 and it worked great.

Quality, quality, quality! It's all one piece of metal with no joints to worry about working loose. The craftsmanship is really nice. Also nice are the genuine leather blade wrap and sheath with a carabiner attached. The hole for the stick is slightly over one inch wide and tapered on one side. It comes out of the box very sharp so please be careful.I think it is super easy to use. Just find a sturdy stick (or rod) that will fit snuggly in the hole, press down, and turn. I found it worked great using a one-inch wooden dowel. The tip is self-tapping and makes quick work of starting the hole. After the hole is started, just keep it straight and press down as you turn.Obviously, harder woods will be tougher to drill into than softer ones.This is a very well-made item and will last for a long, long time. I'm very pleased.

This tool is a “must have” tool in everyone’s bushcraft kit. The tapered screw starts the hole and draws the auger bit into the wood as you rotate the tool. (Hint: make a short handle from a branch to gain additional leverage as you drill.) The auger bit is extremely sharp and cuts through the wood like a hot knife through butter thus forming a perfect hole. Once you have your holes drilled you can use the scotch eye on the reverse end to make a dowel that fits perfectly in the holes you created. With this tool and a small camp axe you can easily make stools and small table for use around camp. Well worth the money for those who want to elevate their bushcraft game.
