Product Details

The Nils USA Hand Auger makes quick work of thick, midwinter ice with a one-piece, high-chromium steel cutting head that stays sharper longer than standard auger blades. The curved blade design slices efficiently through hard ice with minimal downward pressure, making it ideal for anglers chasing perch, walleye, or lake trout on frozen lakes. Its offset handle layout increases torque transfer directly to the cutting head, making drilling faster and smoother with less fatigue. Featuring a cushioned grip for comfort and a folding handle for compact transport, this auger delivers exceptional strength, control, and convenience. Each comes powder-coated blue with a red head and includes a protective cover to guard the cutting surface when stored.

  • One-piece cutting head made from high chromium steel for superior durability
  • Curved blades cut efficiently through thick ice with minimal effort
  • Offset handle increases torque for smoother drilling
  • Folding handle for easy transport and compact storage
  • Cushion grip handle provides added comfort
  • Compatible with Nils USA power auger powerheads
  • Includes plastic cutting head cover for safety and blade protection


To ensure your items arrive in one piece, some products are subject to an oversize packaging fee. This fee will be automatically added to your cart.

    I did a lot of research on hand augers, and found the Nils. I purchased it because I didn't want to spend 400 dollars on a gas auger to then lug gas/oil mix plus a spark plug and have another motor to do maintence on. And I wanted a hand auger that work next year not a 50 dollar pile of junk. It shaves ice like a snoopy snow cone maker. Very easy to use. I have drilled 20 holes in 3 weeks with it. And re-drilled my fish house holes. It has performed wonderfully. I bought the 8 inch model and it works great. I suppose the 6 inch or 4 inch models would be even faster. I am cutting 15 inches of clear solid ice in Wisconsin this year. It takes about 1 minute to get through it, and I am going slow, if I speed up turning it it would go alot faster, but its fishing and why hurry. The other reason I got a hand auger is to be lighter and more mobile than a gas auger. Also to be able to walk out on early ice. - Just buy one you won't be disappointed. Oh and yes the blades are very sharp taking the cover off I cut my finger. -be careful

    After using a friends 6" Nils hand auger on several recent fishing trips I convinced myself that I needed my own! On a recent fishing trip there was 20 inches of ice on the pond and the auger made a hole in under a minute with little effort on my part. A great piece of equipment for those that jig and are constantly on the move. The light weight of the auger makes it a pleasure to carry.
