Hand digging tools ~ I’ve accumulated a few Lesche, Garrett, Predator and others but I am curious what everyone is using while hunting. I’d like to see pictures to lead me in the right direction. Thank you.
Sheath Pics and Suggestions

Mrs. atomicbrh and I were never satisfied with any of the cordura or leather sheaths for the hand diggers and pinpointers.
Too flimsy, too hard to clean and too difficult to use when everything is caked with mud. It took us about 6 months of design work, three months making prototypes and a couple of thousand dollars worth of equipment but we have a great, durable, long lasting digger/pinpointer holder combination sheath like nothing else out there. The trouble is nobody wants to pay the price for a quality product. They had rather repeatedly buy cheap sheaths but they will buy 5 figures worth of detectors. I really want to purchase another $1600 worth of equipment to speed up the creation of molds but as it is now, we wilI never make enough to pay for the equipment. I will not list our price or links here due to forum rules.

Now that I got the above rant over. This sheath looks orange in the photo but it is red. The same red as the grip on the Lesche.
A combination of .093" Holstex and .093" Boltaron which have better properties than Kydex. Cleanout grit groove. Loop for lanyard. USA made genuine Blade-Tech Tek-Lok attachment with custom cut shims fitted to your belt size to control belt tension. You can make it very tight or loose enough to slide on your belt. Removable for cleaning or quick switching to your other belt systems without removing bags, suspenders or other accessories from your belt. Will fit the smallest belt all the way up to military/leo belts. Our sheaths can be cleaned with water and/or compressed air. We do not recommend using a pressure washer or leaving them in a hot car trunk. atomicbrh and Mrs. atomicbrh make them in our own shop with our own hands out of the best components. We do not have any employees. We do not have our sheaths made in 3rd world countries and then lie and say we make them ourselves.

I do have a Lesche & Raptor for when I hunt dirt, but I'm mainly a tot lot hunter now and only use an 8" flathead screwdriver.
