WEYLAND Bushcraft Settlers Tool - Scotch Eye Hand Auger Wrench for Survival, Manual Drill for Bushcraft & Woodworking Hand Tools, Camping Gear for Outdoor DIY & Shelter Building

I thought seriously about not even ordering this. It looked a little "tricksey" to me. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box and examined the device. Obviously, I can't verify material used but the material used appeared top quality in materials and manufacturing and handling. The design is great as well as the execution. There was a very slight depression and a very small icicle in the weld puddle. I have inspected many welds in my time and the puddle issues will not be a problem, I am sure. I took a small whetstone and smoothed off the icicle so it would not scratch my hand. Worked well. I grabbed a couple pieces from our ash tree to try it out. I used a rubber mallet to tap the head to make the one inch diameter cut for the cross piece. Used my new Mora Garberg to baton and smooth the piece to size. I placed this piece into the eye and then drilled a nice 1" hole. After I removed the cross piece, I tapped it into the hole. It fit really well. I had thought of using it to make a ladder, however at 245lbs, I am not sure the 1" diameter would take the weight even with a good piece of wood. Maybe I will just order the larger diameter one next time. But, the things you can use this to make are limited only by your imagination (emergency shelter, shack, rustic chairs, toys for the grandkids, monkey bars etc.) Overall finish and fit are very good. The size is awesome for the tool you get you get and the things you can do with it. In my opinion, I got my money's worth on this purchase. Very impressed.

I haven't tried it out yet. I bought for a grab bag. Seems like a good quality product though.

Leather storage pouch is actually surprisingly excellent quality, and the tool itself is more than worth the price. Own a few of these now and can tell this one will outlast the rest.

Finally got around to using this. Overall excellent construction, great weld on mine and more robust than others I’ve seen. True to size 1.5” on both the auger and scotch eye. Only issue I’ve found is the inner diameter of the scotch eye isn’t fluted out from the cutting point, making it extremely hard to get off after making a longer tenon. Even if just a fraction of a cm were milled out of the ID, maybe a quarter inch after the cutting edge, it would be a lot easier to use but the more pipe up against the newly cut tenon, the harder the friction fit. I’m going to try and ream out the inside after the cutter with a dremel to remedy this but I hope they consider modifying the design a bit to accomdate longer tenons.

Excellent quality! Will be ordering more products!!!

I contacted Weyland prior to purchase for design specifications and received immediate and concise feedback. I purchased both the 1" and 1.5" auger set. The construction of the auger is through the wall of the scotch eye and welded; exactly the design needed for strength and torque. The finish on the tools is most impressive without marring, blemishes, or scarring. The sharpness of the auger and cutting end of scotch eye are also impressive, clean grinds with no burrs. The tools are robust and heavy in weight which lends to easier handling while drilling with auger and batoning scotch eye. Leather sheaths are thick grain, well stitched, and I have no concerns or doubt will hold up well with proper leather maintenance. Completely and extremely satisfied!!

Heavy duty. Can withstand alot of abuse. Good solid tool.

Great quality Very strong
