I understand that you use Predator digging tools.
I have alread broken the end off from one potting trowel that I thought would be strong enough to dig in soil that is not too rocky. the second one is showing signs of stress.
What is your thoughts on the Predator Raptor and the Model 85 digging tool?

Lil Al try contacting some of the TQ sponser. They should be able to help you find the right tool for the job.

the lesche/predator trowel is the best available in my opinion. its hard to imagine ever breaking or even bending it!

[lil al]

thanks all for your insights now the big question what is different about them? in pictures they look the same but i have never seen one close up, thanks for comments

al ,the blades are heat treated and tempered,handles are air craft steel 4130 chrome molly virgin steel making them tuffer than wood pecker lips.hand made in the usa.id say if you break on of these tools diggin ya can send it back and get it replaced.notice the shoves are even welded to the handles no pins or brads in these tools................creekrat

I have done my research and now I have to make up my mind which Predator Tool to buy---Rapator or 85.
Not sure about the design as it fits to the digging chore that it will need to perform. Would the 85 be better for coinshooting over the Rapator or would it be the other way around? Which one would do the least damage to the site? Guess that depends on the digger.

Thanks for the replies

I am sold on Predator Tools.
Now here is the problem.
I have decided on the Rapator and the Model 85.
Can't make up my mind which one would be best for coinshooting.
Which tool would do the least damage to the ground? I know and am presently practing on digging. The Rapator because of it size may do alittle more damage that the Model 85. But the Rapator seems like it would be easier to dig with. Am I looking at this the wrong way?

Heeeeeeeeelp!
