Nokta Legend 2 Really Exists

[Jeff McClendon]

I am one of the final field testers for the new Legend 2. Received it directly from Turkey today.

It is a beautiful detector with very nice carbon fiber shaft system with cam locks. The shafts will not rotate like some other recent detectors.

Extremely light weight. Weighs 40.9 ounces with the 8.5X6" coil and 45 ounces with the 11" round coil.

Lovely back lit display and buttons.

I am abiding by Nokta's NDA so if you have questions I probably will not be able to answer many of them. No software yet also.

Any estimate on price Jeff?

I have not heard the final USA or European Union price yet.

I have heard nothing from Nokta about testing for those detectors.

Good to hear it is real not just a Legend.  😃

And that they are having real people test it, it keeps things real... ☺️

Reputable US detector equipment dealers are advertising Legend 2 pre-order pricing at a pretty consistent $999 US. So $999 must be the MAP against an SRP of $1149 US. (Note that this package includes the LD28 11" and LD21 8x5.5" coils and Nokta's APTX-LL BT wireless headphones).

Looking good, looks to have the traditional Nokta high build quality.  A shame its got a carbon lower shaft, hopefully they have a plastic or fiberglass option available.
