      Fun video, with lots of variety of finds plus family-related stories. :) ~ It's great to see a video with a parent out metal-detecting with their young child, getting them involved in the hobby. I bet Bentley was really glad to have his own little metal detector, even if he spent much of his time playing at the site. ~ Subscribed! :)

      Hello. Im from and live in chittenden county and have been wanting to start detecting for years now but not sure what to get. I was looking at some garretts at maxx. Do you think those are worth the cost?

    My grandmother had some butter knives just like the one you found, Well, at least she used them for butter knives, she had "real butter" in a butter dish in the center of her table, and she always had one of those with it to spread the butter on things. I believe hers would have been from the late 1800s because she said they were her mothers. Hers had a W on them.

    • @ramonahaubrich

    @BackroadsMetalDetecting 3 роки тому +3

    I absolutely love this! Although metal detecting is an activity done on one's own so much of the time, it is the sharing of that experience with others that makes it so special. I had 4 little helpers who live on a farm that I detected last weekend. I didn't find a whole lot that day, but it was so much fun to see the pure joy on their faces with every item we found. I recorded a video and was sure to have it edited for them to watch together as a family that night. One of them had a birthday the next day and decided to spend his birthday money on a detector. That's what it's all about! Congrats on sharing your passion with others including creating memories with Bentley. Jim Parry, Backroads Metal Detecting

    Brad, great to see you out there with Bentley. Great find with the Largee!! NOT surprising not to see Bentley using his new machine much.... WAY to many rocks and logs to go climbing on and explore. I took the neighbor's son out, turned, saw his detector on the ground and couldn't find him until he yelled to me from about 20 feet up in a tree!!!!
    Take care buddy.

    I found one of those lead pencil looking things at a confederate camp this spring.I wasn't sure what to make of it, but I kept it either way.I did move it from among the lead shot so as to not acquaint it with ammo after your assumption of a pencil.:>) I have several unidentifiables (to me at least),that I've dug at this camp, and I may never know. I keep it anyway.Thanks

    Not a lot of memories as my dad died a month before my 6th birthday .

    Hi Brad. We are rebuilding our shop here in Santa Rosa CA. It burned in the 2017 Tubbs fire. We are finally rebuilding after 3.5 long years of trying to get permits. This area has a long old history. While digging for the new fountain for our body shop we have found some very old items. I would love to send you some pictures and see if you can better identify them. One is a soup pot spoon handle I think. Another is a handle from an old box or trunk from 17-1800s as far as I can tell from my searches. Also a pice pottery that I think is an old soup bowl??? Do you have an email that I can send pictures to? Thanks, John

I have the cold steel shovel with sharpened edges. Good luck!!😉
