CKG SAND SCOOP FOR BEACH: It's my 2nd one. I bought it as a backup & for use by friends who I want to introduce to the hobby. Super-solid construction, yet not heavy. I've kept my first one rust free by rinsing it (& the detector coil) thoroughly. Fortunately for me, my go-to beach has outdoor showers in the parking lot to do the rinse offs.

The scoop appears to be well made. Unfortunately we live in Michigan and will have to wait for warmer weather to try the scoop. Thank you for making it possible to make her day. She’s a rock picker from way back.

Great size to weight ratio. Will pull your treasure out with ease. Literally nothing gets through this scoop.

Absolutely perfect for underwater or beach hunting. stainless, small diameter holes, perfect size, very well made. I added an oak handle from a shovel, great tool for rocky river bottoms. I beat the hell out of this scoop and it's built like a tank. I thought it was a bit small at first, but lifting a scoop full of sand, gravel, rocks under water with one arm will wear you out quicker than you think. seems a bit pricey up front, but I honestly don't know how this scoop can fail except for the handle you add.
