The Benefits of an Offset Hand Auger Handle from RAZR for Faster, Easier Ice Drilling

Discover how an offset hand auger handle can make drilling through ice faster, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before.

This is an Offset Hand Auger Handle from RAZR

While there are many different types and styles of hand-powered ice augers on the market, one particular item that can significantly improve your drilling experience is an offset hand auger handle. In this blog post, we'll explore what an offset hand auger handle is and how it can make drilling faster, easier, and more comfortable.


An offset hand auger handle is a design feature that allows the user to apply more torque and power when rotating the auger. The handles are positioned to the side of the auger bit (offset from the center) allowing the user to apply more downward and twisting force in a natural and ergonomic position. By using both arms to rotate the drill, the user can distribute the workload more evenly and reduce fatigue, resulting in faster drilling speeds and greater drilling efficiency.

The benefits of an offset hand auger handle go beyond just increased drilling speed and efficiency. The design also allows for greater control and precision when drilling through ice. The offset handle allows the user to guide the auger more easily and make small adjustments as needed to ensure that the hole is drilled precisely where desired. Additionally, the use of an offset hand auger handle can significantly reduce physical strain on the user, making the hole drilling process more comfortable and less taxing on the body.


RAZR Ice Augers is a leading manufacturer of high-quality ice fishing equipment, including ice augers with in-line handles. In addition to offering complete ice augers with in-line handles. RAZR also sells an optional offset handle that is compatible with 95% of hand augers on the market, including the RAZR Curved Blade Hand Augers and RAZR Flat Blade Hand Augers. So, if you already own a hand auger and want to upgrade to an offset handle, the RAZR offset handle is an excellent choice. What's more, if you're using a RAZR Scout® or RAZR Synthetic Lite, you can also pair them up with a RAZR offset handle to experience the benefits of an offset handle for faster, easier, and more efficient drilling without the need for a brushless drill. As an added benefit, the offset handle from RAZR also folds shown in the image above.


In conclusion, an offset hand auger handle is a design feature that can significantly improve your ice drilling experience. By allowing the user to apply more torque and power, distribute the workload more evenly, and reduce physical strain, an offset handle can make drilling through thick ice faster, easier, and more efficient than ever before.
