Description: |
Claim is for extra strength due to one portion of the wooden handle being nearly full length. It screws into the other end of the handle by means of wooden threads, and presses a steel detent, or catch, into a corresponding notch, or indent, in the shank of the auger bit as it is tightened. Patentee refers to it as "Thayer's Improved Auger-Handle." |
