A precise and durable auger bit designed for clean, efficient boring in both dry and green wood. Manufactured in Japan by Star-M, the No.6 Combination Bit features a lead screw for easy centering, a twin cutting edge for reduced resistance, and an open spiral flute for excellent chip clearance. Ideal for green woodworking, chairmaking, timber framing, and more.
These are better for through holes or shorter diameter drilling, if you're looking for deeper boring with a longer shank take a look at the Power Auger Bit No.4.
Crafted for use with power drills and hand braces, this bit features a hexagonal shank to reduce slippage in the chuck - with either 6.35mm or 10mm hex depending on size (please see table below for reference).

Open flute for smooth chip ejection
Excellent for boring through green wood
Hexagonal shank for secure grip in drill
