Does not bite well into wood. Nearly impossible to use
Tried to auger out a stump, this barely put a dent in it.

Have file? Will love!
After using this scotch eye for a couple years, I tried a different "settler's tool" that had a pre sharpened eye, and different cutting plane. That other tool was disappointing compared to this one. I still love this scotch eye much more even though I had to sharpen the eye, clean up the weld in the eye, and touch up the cutting plane. It just bites in so well when sharp. To be fair, this scotch eye isn't intended to have a sharpened eye to begin with, but sharpening one side makes it much more useful. So if you have files and don't mind a little work sharpening the eye, I think you'll get over the large size and lack of carrying pouch. I've only tested this and the other settler's tool on oak, so your experience may be different on softer/harder woods. Took off 1 star for ease of use due to some nicks on the cutting plane that I filed out. This may have been from shipping, but still might require more effort to clean up, or increase the effort to cut.

It works ok
The tip and the threaded part of the tip seemed to be blunted in a way that you really have to use some pressure to drive it through instead of the bit pulling itself through

WOW!
Hey need an auger, this is the one. Drill deep and easy to use. Great for old style log works. Pin and lock. Good product.

Strong and sturdy
I had a wooden pole stuck in an underwater umbrella sleeve and had to saw it off. I used this item to hand drill through the remaining wood and draw that part of the pole out.It's very manual intense and took some time but it did get the job done.
