Generally speaking, this is a great shaft for your sand scoop. It splits in two making it ideal for tossing in your trunk and it’s nice and sturdy for when the ground is partially frozen or just not cooperating. Now to the downsides. First, this thing is smoooooth. I ended up adding an ATV handle I found online to give me extra leverage. Next, the threads don’t hold that well. I’d take this over the alternative of it getting stuck together, but it can be annoying at times.

In all, I’d buy this one again. I’d just make sure to modify it again too.

Okay I know my summary of my review is somewhat strange seeing how I actually broke the shovel. i had it for about 4 years and is actually designed well just not for a 280 lb person behind it. Once it has a kink bend it’s pretty much done. I would still recommend with caution on use. I was pleased with its performance and design.

Heavy seems to be the reoccuring theme with this scoop. I've had it almost 2 years, It is very heavy, it fact some days I take my wife's CKG scoop as it ways about half but it still looks like the day I bought (Oct 2020). No rust or anything else. I just purchased an Anderson Neptune 45" x 1 1/2" carbon fiber handle to replace my wood handle hoping it would be lighter (wrong, 3 oz heavier). Oh well, at least it will float better now. I give it 4 1/2 stars

I have used and reviewed most underwater metal detectors made. I underwater and Shallow water detected since approximately 1984'. I have found the Fisher 1280 X w the 8" coil to be the Best and most versatile UW detector made.
I tested several other UW detector brands. And have found when in the water being rugged and of simple use a great asset. One reason is the ability to set the detection and go. UW you don't have time to "anyalize" your target. Best results come from discrimination and recovery of the target quickly.
The 1280 X is a very rugged detector and is simp!e to use. The tone on targets is wear it works out great. The 8" coil will be the best option when searching trashy area's that contain high value target's like rings and jewelry amongst wind blown trash on the bottom of lake or sea bed in front of Resort Area's. Were a 10" coil will make it difficult to separate target's. make sure to use a coil cover. The constant dragging of the coil on the water bottom will cause the coil the wear through. Keep extra covers. I use a hand bui!t scoop w a pipe insulation on it covered w plumbers tape. The Scoop will float upright allowing you to be able to find it easier should you let go of it. It will not fall to the bottom. The 1280 has a belt clip which is very handy. I will attach it to my waist or chest depending on what I am doing. Unless I am doing a quick shallow water hunt up to my waist and will leave it assembled. I used this model for well over 15 years almost every day in the summer months. Before I purchased a second and 3rd being the 1280x w 10" for large sandy areas w almost nobtrash. And the CZ 21 Quick Silver for minerlized areas in N Ca. . But this model helped me to recover well over 22lbs of Silver Coins. And over 1120 rings, Bracelets , Gold and Silver Chains , other Items All along California. Other handy item is I was able to use the handy Hard Case to lock it and bring it w me on trips to the Caribbean, Alaska, East Coast .
In creeks,Rivers,Lakes,Swimming holes across America and abroad.
By far the best well made UW detector. If you want to waste time anylizing targets with other detectors you can spend more $ on a more expensive one. Or quickly recover targets and go through them later to find the high value target's. It about quick recovery of targets. The Separate Battery Compartment and Sealed electronics is a Very big plus in waves. Nothing worse then ending a trip because the seal failed on your detector and getting your electronics wet. Ruining you detector and you day.
Good Luck . Happy Hunting.

I’ve tried so many different knee pads it ridiculous. They are always uncomfortable! Either sliding down, rubbing your legs, or just downright cumbersome. These fiskars are super light and stay exactly where I want them to be! I actually forget I have them on! If looking for knee pads I highly recommend these!
