    As someone new to metal detecting, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain this comparison, and helping me find the perfect shovel so I don’t waste any money!

    All is it takes is to just pop one plug with the Phoenix and you will realize how much you have struggled with your other shovels. I have broken and bent many shovels in my many years of detecting. I am still popping plugs everyday with the same Phoenix for over 4 years. FLAWLESS SHOVEL!!

    I also got the pheonix due to Paystreaks recommendation, and i love it, ive never used any one elses metal detecting shovel, so i dont actually know how much better it is, but it works great for me,
    I also like the size and weight, i can fit it in my nokta backppack, and i can comfortably hold it with one hand while swinging my detector
    I recently snapped my garret hand digger, i wasnt even prying hard it just had enough and snapped, i was going to order a predetor 75 or 85, but instead i went with Excalibur rugged hand digger, i think its going to be a good digger, someone in the comments of paystreaks video said ill love it, so ill see

    Excellent comparison video! Thanks for posting this! I’ve been watching Paystreak for a while now. I’ve been aware of the Phoenix from watching Jeremy’s channel. I plan to get one before long. Using a Root Slayer now and it does a decent job. Cheers from Bridgeport, Connecticut!

    and the teeth are rounded where they connect to the shovel vs a sharp 90 degree. the square teeth cutouts are a point of failure because it can fracture along those sharp square edges. the round cutouts provide a lot more support and are less likely to fracture the shovel in half.

    Cool shovel and video. If you didn’t already know the holes in the top of the shovel blade are for a bolt on rubber foot pad to help cushion when you kick the shovel in the ground. My wolverine landscape shovel has them as well but I haven’t added the foot pads yet. It would prob be useful if you like wearing shoes with softer soles.

    Hey G2D, i would wonder if that curved blade would cause a few more targets to get dinged. I have a similar shovel to the razor just an 18" version (different make) and it cuts perfect plugs. I don't like the long shovels , i find they make worse plugs. Good video. All the best and happy holidays. :-)

    • @Get2Diggin
      @Get2Diggin  2 года назад

      I'm not sure. I really wouldn't think it cause more targets to get dinged as it's not overly curved. I believe the small curve it does have just let's the plug pop out of the hole alot easier. And I can good plugs with the straight. It was more about the compressing of the soil behind the straight shovel and making a a bigger seam around the plug and ground when putting the plug Back in the hole. The curve makes it almost seamless. Hope you and your family and a Merry Christmas and thanks for watching

    I own a Phoenix. 1st video I ever watched of Paystreak Superfreak(J man) I was in the market for a new shovel. How I found his channel. The Phoenix has 2 curves on the blade. It digs the best plugs. I'm a little taller and my only complaint is that it is a bit short for me. Other than that, it is the best shovel. Built very very well. Looking at another shovel now with Predator Tools and see they may have the exact same blade as the phoenix on another model, but that model is about 3" longer, which would be perfect.

    • @Get2Diggin
      @Get2Diggin  2 года назад +1

      Ah sweet man. Yea paystreak is where I seen this shovel and had to have it. I'm 5'10 and it's perfect for me. Yea I believe I seen the shovel you are talking about. If your taller than me I would say the taller shovel would work better. As far as digging plugs though. I honestly think there is no other shovel to compete with the Phoenix. Subscribed to you also. Thanks for watching

      Predator Hurricane is the longer handle model 33. Same blade length and width but at 38 1/4 inches total length. By comparison, the Phoenix is 33 3/4 inches (according to their website) Also, there is a difference in the handle. The Hurricane has a T handle while the Phoenix is more D shaped. I prefer the D shape, but that's just personal preference.
