WE ARE NOW PROUD TO CARRY APEX PICKS IN OUR STORE

Apex Prospecting Picks and equipment have been developed by Engineers, with the help of professional gold nugget hunters and detectorists. As we continually evaluate comments from the field on ways to improve our product, we are now offering our picks with a new and improved magnet location in the top of the head. This magnet is located opposite of the handle for improved targeting of the item to be found. These products are still the highest quality, most advanced, professional-grade gold, meteorite and relic prospecting picks and accessories available for both professional and amateur metal detecting and relic hunters.
