The velocity auger (by Nils Master) sold by cabelas, and at some other sites, comes with a double-offset handle. It's the only one I know of that does. I used the regular handle to drill holes when I first got my auger, and then got a tip from a guy in the upper midwest who uses a hand auger for ice thicker than most of the ice we see here in Colorado. He said the double-offset handle made drilling feel easier, because you use two hands to crank simultaneously, rather than holding with one and cranking with the other (and switching when you get tired). I got the double-offset handle early last season, and I was surprised at how much difference there was. You don't need a lot of downward force with sharp blades. When you are using both arms to crank, neither arms has to work as hard as one arm does with a regular handle, so you can crank a bit longer before you need rest. It's really the way to go, if you don't have any power auger options. You can get a double-offset handle from Strikemaster, by ordering directly from the their parts store (online). It's about $20+shipping, I think.
