Thanks for visiting…since the launch of DetectorStuff I’ve worked to improve the hobby of metal detecting by seeking out interviews, metal detector reviews, interesting stories, etc.
Not to brag, or anything (okay…maybe a little!) this was one of the first sites on the Web to interview industry insiders and put their unique perspectives on the written page for hobby enthusiasts. I’ve had conversations with legends at Fisher, White’s, Detectorpro, Teknetics and more. The “brains” behind some of the coolest detectors on the planet!

Manufacturers heading into the sunset…
Word on the various forums is that some long-lived metal detector manufacturers are either out of business or very close. The ones I’m currently hearing about are Tesoro and Nautilus…both of which hold a special place in my heart. I…
