Metal Detecting
I've used my standard issue cloth and plastic Garrett digger sheath for about a month now and as you can see in the photo, it has already started to shred. So today I got my upgrade!! Talk about HEAVY DUTY! This sheath fits my Garrett Digger and Pro Pointer perfectly. The really THICK leather, metal rivets and heavy stitching should last for a long long time. The Pro Pointer fits nice and snug and the bottom of the sheath is open to allow for the dirt to fall out after placing your dirty digger back into the sheath. It also comes with a small D-ring on the side.

If you happen to need a replacement I picked mine up from "Swingbot" who is a user on Treasurenet. Shipping was very quick, taking only two days and the craftsmanship and materials were even better than I had thought it would be. The price was $65, which I thought was a little high until I actually got my hands on this thing, it is certainly built to last. I will try to give a follow-up review of how it is holding up after I have used it for a month or two.
 

What did it set you back?
 

Hey Casca, its listed just below the photos and that price included shipping.

Those look heavy duty but no way would I personally want them both in the same sheath.. I have my finds bag (nail bag) on my right hip, pinpointer on my left hip and lesche just to the right of my tailbone.. I set my tector' down and grab both the pinpointer and lesche at the same time.. Solid piece, just not for me
 

The set up with the hand lesche & pinpointer is awesome less things to put on ur belt & its well balanced
 

I get what your saying Wit, I normally have my pointer on the left front hip and the digger on my right rear. I would also grab both the pointer and digger at the same time. I also often find myself working the detector in my right hand and carrying my digger in my left hand. I thought I would give the combo a try and see what position and method might work for me. Worse case, I go back to a separate holder for my pointer. We will see.
 

Pigstick, how did you pay? Will he accept a check?
 

I paid by PayPal, not sure what, if any other options he may accept.

So you will probably wear this in the back so you can grab both at the same time? The only problem I see you may have with that is if the pinpointer is angled to the side you would want it to be.. Looks like you'd be grabbing it with the left hand and the digger with the right.. I hope it works out for you.. Perhaps it's something people should think about before ordering.. I'm sure (positive, since I do leatherwork) that requests for the opposite angle could be met without creating any extra work for the maker.
 

There made in left .& right angle or side u just let buzz know & what color just google bomb sheaths they pop right up with info
 

No no Wit, putting it on my back to grab both doesn't make any sense. What I am thinking of trying is "I thought I would give the combo a try and see what position and method might work for me. Worse case, I go back to a separate holder for my pointer. We will see.".

Hey guys.. thanks for posting and I do make a sheath for the Garrett PP buy its self and a lesche sheath to match but it will be more to spend for it. If you need a sheath just let me know, send me an Email, itsnice2day@gmil.com and the BOMB will be the last sheath you'll need. ;-)

Definetly only one i need lol the pinpointer holder fits either my propointer or my profinder 25 big + very happy with it
 

Hey Bud,, You been hitting the old cellar hole in your neck of the woods?

Course but has been slowing down Woods is starting to get really over grown. U turn that silver bar into a pendent yet?
 

I carry my bomb right in front. When I hit a target I just kneel, dig then pin point. And Buzz, I'm working overtime trying to wear this sucker out but I think its gonna outlive me :)

Awesome workmanship, super heavy duty materials = a happy Fast Ed
 

I bought one two months ago on a whim. I cannot see how to get along without one of these sheaths. Often I will go "stealth" by just having this one sheath on my right pants belt, and place my coins in my back pocket instead of getting out all of my gear. I have the cheaper sheath that has the pinpointer holder to the front of the sheath at a 90 degree rather than at an angle at the front of the sheath. I would like to hit Buzz up and see if he can do the same configuration as mine and add a small snap pouch to the front of the sheath so that finds and everything can be held in one small package. Super stealth, dual purpose sheath essentially.

My opinion that after having the basics, e.g. detector, pinpointer and digger, a Buzz Wilson sheath could be next logical purchase.

I agree his sheaths r built to last buy once instead of buy cheap & mayb out in the feild lose a valuable tool or item,my opinión worth every penny
 

Hey guys! Thanks for the great input on my sheaths. I hope all is well and that the BOMB is serving you well. ;-)
