The Nils Master Hand Ice Auger feature a one-piece cutting head instead of individual blades. This design offers a stronger overall cutting surface. The cutting head is high chromium steel, which is more durable than other brands of auger blades and will stay sharper longer. The curved blades quickly cut through the thickest ice with little to no downward pressure applied. Nils USA Hand Augers have cushion grip handles for cutting comfort. The offset handle design brings the drilling hand out, farther away from the centerline of the auger, increasing the torque going directly to the cutting head. This makes drilling holes much easier than with similar-sized augers. The folding handle design makes transportation and storage a breeze.
All models come with a plastic cutting headcover to protect the blades from damage and to protect users from the blades. Nils USA Hand Augers are power-coated blue with red cutting heads. The auger assembly/cutting head section of these hand augers can be used in conjunction with the Nils USA power auger powerheads.
