Hodan 16 inch handle pick (PK-002)

Manufactured in Arizona, USA by Hodan Machine; these picks are being used by prospectors across the nation. Made from heat treated carbon steel to a surface hardness of Rc 50 – 55 and a depth of .030 inches, the picks are then tempered, giving these tools outstanding wear resistance and durability. Each pick is fitted with an American Hickory handle which is both wedged and pinned to the head. A small button magnet is attached to the end of the handle for picking out small pieces of ferrous trash. We have two sizes available: a 16” handle and a 24” handle. The 16” is a perfect size for wearing on the belt, while the larger 24” can also be worn on the hip or slung across the shoulder. The 16” version has been preferred by detectorists swinging VLF-type machines such as: Fisher Gold Bugs, Whites GoldMasters, Tesoro Lobos, etc.
