Takes about 5 minutes to go through 2 feet of ice and you can make wide angle hole any size for good viewing. I have been using a chisel for 30+ years of ice fishing.

This was my last chisel that another AO member bought and he tells me he enjoys using it.
40 holes, 200 minutes aka ~3.5 hours.

No thanks, I will stick to my power auger lol.
