Antique Boring Machine Auger Bit 2.0 Inch Diameter

$48.00
Quantity available: 1

This is a clean 2.00 inch diameter wood auger bit with a .55" diameter shank size and the tapered square tip end that can be held in a T-handle (not included). The tapered end screw is sharp at the end, and in good useable condition. The twin cutting edges and spurs have been lightly sharpened for testing and found to cut quite well in pine despite the fact that the spirals do have minor pitting on those surface that may hinder the wood chip evacution process, but I didn't notice any problems in the pine test. The metal is clean, very useable. A hard to find drill, for a turn of the century post and beam drilling machine or to fit your T-Handle. This auger bit is 2 inch diameter x 15 inch  long overall. Part of a name does appear on the taper end, looks like D.BASS..... to me.
