phrunt Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I like the look of the shovel, I seem destructive on detecting shovels, never had one not break or bend on me. I have no idea why as I'm in soft soil but have to dig deep and they eventually bend or break levering the soil out, I wonder how the Nokta would hold up.... Handy it's got a bottle opener, never know when you'd need a beer to celebrate a good find. 🙂 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use mine to cut/break roots sometimes, and dig in packed gravel. Those kits look great. If they're using 2mm stainless it should be pretty tough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll let phrunt tell you about it… That Nokta collapsible shovel doesn't stand a chance of surviving phrunt abuse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phrunt Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 It was probably only my second week using it too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67GTA Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Love the way the shovel looks but worried about the design. That black plastic grommet will be taking all the abuse from digging/prying between that sliding tube construction. I could see me breaking that piece and deforming the hollow tube deign trying to pry out a big rock. Been waiting on some long term usage reviews. So far only the usual Youtube commercials with unboxing with a couple of holes dug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
☠ Cipher Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I’d be interested in some of those products if they were in black. There was a time where I was into camo, but grew tired of it. It’s also looked upon unfavorably among many detectorists, being associated with stealth hunting and night hawking. This is particularly true in the UK. It couldn’t hurt to have some color options anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
