Eskimo Shark ??

[Johnsonator]

I have an opprotunity to buy a 8" eskimo shark new for $270. I was wondering if this is a good deal and if anybody knows how they cut in comparison to a laser mag 8". I have heard the shark is awesome, but just wondering what you guys think. Thanks

I have an older eskimo auger that has always worked great for me. It is probably 8-10 years old and there hsa never been a problem getting it started. Some of the people that I fish with have a jiffy, which is a good auger, but mine cuts faster and always seems to run better than theirs. If you can get the shark for $270 dollars, take the deal and run with it.

I have an Eskimo Shark 10" auger and love it,
if you can buy an 8" for $270.00,BUY IT!

You can't buy a better auger, especially for that kind of money/\.

I'm not sure how the Shark compares to it, but I bought a brand new Eskimo Barracuda about a month ago and it works great. The price was over $300 and I've found that pretty much every other place I checked on them. The three guys I usually fish with all have Jiffy's and none of them works as well as mine does. So, I have to agree with the other guys here, snatch it up.

I own the Eskimo shark that is blue in color. Last year model. It is great, they have the chainsaw engine on it. And they rotate at 11,500 rpms. I have cut over 150 hole already this year and all is great. Very FAST. Always starts and does not die like my 10" Strike master, when you hit the water. If you get the new Red model you should order the center point. $19.99 Also the Eskimo staff is great they will help you with anything. There is also a full two-year warranty on the auger. http://www.ardisam.com/pages/ice_augers/ice_augers_index.html
