I know the overwhelming fave is the Lesche, and I may just go that route. I have done a little detecting this year, but have been unable to go for various reasons, only rare chances but hope to up my game before too long.
My birthday is coming up and wife wanted to know what I want. I've never had anything but garden type diggers and when the ground gets hard it really slows me down. I have been happy enough with everything I have except the digger so time to get something made for the hobby.
On the serrated edges I have seem left, right and both edges serrated, what's the difference or advantage?
I do sort of like the thought of the short T Handle Sampson, almost seems like the 18" is even too long and is a little over budget but could probably sweet talk her in to it, does that length work well at a kneeling position?
Any other recommendations appreciated too, I am not fixed on any one brand. I think the T handle might be easier to turn and cut, is my thinking, not sure if it would work out like I think though. I mainly just go to parks and other public areas.
