Looks like the shipment has arrived. Serious Detecting has at least 10 available as I write this: https://www.ebay.com/str/seriousdetecting/Nokta-Makro/_i.html?store_cat=14364028018

I don't know if anyone else has had this detector in the salt water where there is a lot of iron but I was very Impressed by the audio, target assignment and overall processing. This thing is fast and deep.--even in the MW preset. It brought up targets in an area that NOX and Excalibur hunters had been in for days. Unbelievable what you get for your money these days--a great value. I ran at Sens 25 Speed 5 or 6, Stability 1 or 2 and experimented with 4, 6 and 60 tones. If anyone has done any testing to determine if the Legend brings up targets best at higher or lower Speeds--let me know. cjc

I need to know what extra coils are coming for the Legend before I get one. I would like an option of an 8" or 9" round coil when purchasing the Legend. I don't like 11" coils water hunting. The 6" coils is small in the water but does sweep easy. So I would be happy with an optional 8" or 9" round coil and a 5x9.5 coil.

Folks this is my first spin at the beach with the Legend. I ended up with a bunch of lead sinkers, some toasty beach clad and two silver rings. Gold was stingy, there were a total of four hunters at this beach and only one got a gold ring. I did a little testing on the salt sensitivity setting, but I don't think this is a beach where it would be beneficial. I want to test that feature at another beach as well before I make any comments/release video on it.

Has anyone seen anything about the Legend? I seen where Calabash got his. Hope he post some videos about it. I have not been keeping up with it, dose anyone know anything more than 2 weeks ago? Weather getting good here, need to start finding some rings and coins. Thanks Dean

for anyone that has ordered the Legend Pro Pack Dilek posted on face book they are being shipped out tomorrow just thought people would like a bit of info

Need to wait for iron bias for the Legend to be able to hit the gold chain. I hope it does. Note Added By Moderator - this thread perfectly highlights the dangers of trusting internet videos. Do read the entire thread before passing judgement.

Production model Legend without iron bias update, tested for durability and depth by Paystreak Superfreak.

Was looking at Different websites and Most don't have the Legend in stock(Kellyco also} Pre Ordered mine with a 10% off discount and No Tax and free delivery and UPS will have it to me on Weds.(Final cost $571.50} Winter will not be over in the Poconos for at least another Month so I am glad I was able to be the 1st ones to get one and not sure if the newest update will be installed on it.I feel with the Economy is that there might be a price increase soon since everything else is going up in price.Just Glad that they did not increase the price today.................JT

ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND NOKTA MAKRO I THANK YOU! IT TAKES COURAGE AND SELF CONFIDENCE TO SAY ''IT WAS MY FAULT'' IN TODAY'S WORLD! THE 6'' COIL WILL BE NOKTA MAKRO'S GIFT TO YOU FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING. WE APPRECIATE IT.

A few pics : - Deus2 11" RC in the pocket without CC : - Deus2 11" + RC + CC : - Deus2 11" coil without CC : - Deus2 RC:

Does anyone know how many Legends were shipped out in the initial shipment to dealers in the US ??, a couple each 10 each or is this info still unknown Since I am not seeing many post about people receiving their Legend yet I am assuming the initial shipment was not many, which is kind of disconcerting to me, and yes believe me I know what assumption does for someone, if the US and Canada was the first countries to have the Legend shipped to its kind of puzzling why there are not more post being put up giving peoples thoughts on it, I have seen a few in the UK and a couple other countries but I am starting to think things are being held up in customs in the US and Canada which to me is crazy it should not take this long once they have been sent out by the manufacturer Maybe Nokta/Macro can chime in and shed some light on it Appreciate others thoughts

Production model Legend with preset fixed iron bias (not updated) recovery speed and ferrous/non ferrous masking video tests from the UK by a very experienced detector tester and user.

These two videos pretty much tells me the legend can pass the test iffy signals posted up with a little tweaking of settings on the legend with out a adjustable iron bias seems pretty dang good to me out of the box.

As long as iron bias mitigates the scenarios presented in this video, this will be a great machine: Next up will be a day at the beach.

Accurate, or damage control? You decide

Dear Valued Members, This is to confirm that, based on the amount of messages we got from end users after the live reveal yesterday asking for an Iron Bias setting, our engineers have started working on it already and we have decided to make the update available as soon as the engineers are done. Customers will be able to easily update their units on PC or Mac platforms. THANK YOU!

Iffy Signals has his Nokta Makro Legend Production Unit and made this introductory video of the new changes to the menu. Great looking detector.

Iffy SIgnals uploaded a couple new Legend Videos…. Hope I did this correctly.

Just a question for the guys who have used the legend and the deus. I have a deus and was wondering how the recovery/reactivity compared?

It will be replacing my Equinox 800 and my Orx will be my backup water hunter. I like the sharp tones & the depth of the Legend. I'm also looking forward to seeing some videos of the updated version. Also looking forward to seeing what coils will be available for this detector. Hopefully more than the Equinox.
