Title: Vexilar K-Drill
Post by: BaitBucket on Feb 18, 2013, 06:28 PM

Just curious if anyone has any reviews on the 8in version of this drill.
How many holes can you get thru say 12in of ice?
Does it work better with a Nils or Fin-Bore Auger?

The K drill has been around for a few years.  The parent company used to make a gas auger and a few different augers.  They had a 12" auger that they would only sell to rescue departments.

They must have either sold out, or sold the rights to the K drill to Vex.
