http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=199166.0Sometimes all it takes is some sandy ice like near where a river flows in to dull up a blade in a quick hurry! Great augers though
I bought a brand new 8" strikemaster auger probably 3 years ago, back when I use to fish the sandbar alot. I think the ice there tends to be dirty. it worked great for the first month or so, but then it was having a hard time cutting, till it just wouldn't anymore, it would just spin. I thought the angle of my blades were off, or something else was screwed up b/c hey its brand new it can't be the blades, they still have to be sharp. So I asked on here and a bunch of people said sounds like dull blades so I just bought new blades to see if thats what it was. YUP! Worked like a charm after that. You'd be surprised how dull your blades will get just cutting dirty ice.
One of the best augers out there, if not the best
