Digging Tool: Knife Style, Shovel...What Do You Use?

[JohnnyRebCSA]

When I first started metal detecting in the mid 80's I found out quickly one must have a digging tool made from good metal. Yeah, the cheap stuff bends easily. I bought a digger from Kellyco that I think was called the Gator. Can't find it so I've got to pick up something else.

What has worked best for you? Knife style? A type of shovel? Where did you buy it?

Thanks,
JohnnyRebCSA

Yeah it is a little pricey but well worth it and it comes with a 5 year warranty. I mainly hunt civil war and colonial relics in fields so I need something with a good blade and will last.

Yeah that is one mean looking digger and a lot of foot kicking room too. Its a little pricy but I'm sure its worth it. I also have the Sampson 31in for the money you can't beat it
