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 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!!

This tool appears well made. I believe the weld goes all the way through the eye, inside ground n buffed to a finished look. It’s stronger. Others have the bit welded just to eye outside handle and seem pitted. Weak. Stick into handle works well, bit cuts, I punch a starter hole and it’s easy. Use w care. The one I received the bit has a few tiny chips out along cutting edge, no big deal (can be sharpened). Used w care (gloves or something covering the bit when holding) the peg maker works, go easy w confidence. One can go w make ur own pegs no problem. This is a fun shop/camp tool, left to ur imagination and skill - no telling - what one can make ! Leather case nicely made. This tool is more expensive than others however well worth the extra $In closing V Goo !!!

I have yet to use it, but this is a solid piece of equipment that any backpacker should keep on their persons. I liked this tool so much I also bought the saw that Weyland sells. Its super sturdy and only drawback of the saw is the weight. However, the settlers tool feels and looks great. I cant wait to try it out!

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.

My husband absolutely loves his birthday gift. He has already used it to create a mini rocket stove from a log. Great quality & very useful for many things. The holder is of nice quality, also.

Awesome Tool for survival as well as woodworking. I've already made a stool for a campsite by drilling into the bottom of a piece of slab wood I cut from a tree. Using the auger wrench I shaved down 4 branches and fit them into the holes and made a very sturdy stool. Next project will be to make a ladder.

Well-built for hard use. Built a small backwoods shelter frame it and it worked flawlessly. I only wish I knew they made a longer auger one before I bought this.

Very well made. Great for camping. Purchased one for a friend as well.
