[attachment 108588 DSCF2944.JPG] here is my digging tool inches marked on metal 6'' to bottom of handle.Tough as steel 7.00dollars USA Hobbies.Sharpen when it get dull this is one year old,Fits great in back pocket,Would recommend to any one on budget I would have bought a lecher but looked like bowie knife.mine doesn't have saw teeth on side but do OK with out them.Screw driver is my probe should get a brass tip one. Few coins i found




[attachment 108590 DSCF2946.JPG] The item sitting on dime 4 inches down relic mode hi squeak no.80 81 and iron reading, sometimes the mxt will amaze you 10'' dd ex coil.It looks like bullet tip but really small.
 
Why is my tool so small why is my wife laughing hm mm, Just my opinion My holes when i dig are probably 3x3 should be able to pin point down really narrow a few times they get away from me.But lately i have been watching you tube and some metal detecting videos homemade and these people are digging hole the size of garbage can lids,one i just recently watched he was testing out pin pointers,If you need one,for a hole that size give up or get a back hoe.They are using shovels and lechers not correct spelling,I like those lechers and will some day keep one in the car.That why my tools fit in my back pocket travel light. i don't know if it is just for the video but please if you can stay out of my areas thanks.just my opinion.
 
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Hay Ian, I think he's talking about you! :cry: Most the guys digging with shovels are relic hunting in open fields and wooded areas, NOT some ones yard or a park!! :lmfao: I us a shovel some times and you can't even tell I was there, and I use a small digger like yours and a screw driver. I also have a small Lesche {correct spelling} digger and a lesche relic shovel, which comes in handy when digging in cement hard ground. I can make a plug with it you can't even see. Just my opinion.:wiggle:

I would like to see you dig a gold nugget or even a civil war cannon ball with that.:rofl:
 
I also use the small trowel. Even smaller than yours Fred and also carry it in my back pocket. Also carry a small screwdriver that fits in my fanny pack. When hunting in parks, school yards, private property, you DON'T want to carry a big knife type digger. That's the last thing people want to see when you're in their park, etc. Specially on school grounds. The shovel type tool would be excellent in wooded areas and fields, etc. That would be ideal to have. I might have to check into one of those. Just my humble opinion. HH to all, Nancy
 
My digging arsenal, Have something for every situation. :thumbup:
 
That's a pretty impressive arsenal. I'm not familiar with all the terms used for the tools I read about on this site. What is the third tool from the left in the picture. It looks like dirt would run from it in fear. Thanks.
 
From left to right no.1 looks similar to mine no2 i have number 4 and 5 are those round and do they have a brass tip?like those. no 7 i have.I like 3 6 and 8 would like to have them in my car in case i needed them.That shovel no 8 how wide is that?Like that .I was just saying around you have to be kind of be unseen or people start thinking you are out to ruin everything,even though they have no knowledge of metal detecting.Thanks or they watched someone who didn't know how to dig or just didn't care.
 
your digging tools look similar to mine. I don't use a trowel much clad hunting. Most clad I pop out with my screwdriver which is a long shaft narrow blade like yours. I like my digging tools to fit in the pockets of my bib overalls. Even most of my field hunting is done using the same digging tools. When the ground gets super hard I have a garden tool something like a hand held mattock that fits in the hammer loop on the leg of my bibs. That way I don't have to carry anything but my detector.
 
Fred, # 4 is a coin probe. # 5 is just an old philips screw driver, # 3 is a Lesche standard trowel digger, # 6 is a Lesche relic shovel 25.3/4"L - blade 5.1/4"W - 7.3/4"L weight is 2 lbs, # 8 is a Lesche sampson T-handle 32"L blade 8"L - 4.5"W weight is 2.6 lbs. Kellyco sells them all.I keep them in a tool box in the back of my truck I never know what I might need at any given time. I might start out coin hunting at a park or school and by the end of the day I will be in a Field relic hunting or a creek prospecting!:thumbup:
 
:rofl: :rofl: Don't be telling people about my tool,:nono: that's mine and your secret:rofl: :rofl:
