The Serious Detecting Brown Leather Sheath carries your pinpointer and your digging tool on the same belt loop, so both are exactly where your hand expects them when a target signals. It is cut and riveted from full genuine brown leather, sized to fit the pinpointers and hand diggers detectorists actually use, and offered in Left-Sided and Right-Sided versions so you can match it to your dominant hand. Why a Leather Sheath Beats a Pocket Most detectorists start out with the pinpointer in a back pocket and the digger tucked under a belt. Both work until the moment they matter. The pinpointer slides out somewhere between the truck and the third hole, and the digger blade finds your leg every time you kneel. A dedicated sheath fixes that permanently: one motion to draw, one motion to return, no looking down, no patting pockets in wet grass while the coil waits. Leather earns its place here over nylon and plastic. It does not go brittle in cold weather or turn tacky in summer heat, it breathes instead of trapping moisture against an expensive pinpointer, and the pocket molds to your specific tools after a few hunts rather than staying loose forever. The finish darkens into a patina with use, so the sheath ends up looking better in year three than it did in week one. Key Features Two tools, one accessory: a deep sheath pocket for a hand digger plus a dedicated loop for a pinpointer Handed design: choose Left-Sided or Right-Sided so the draw follows your natural motion Genuine brown leather: thick, field grade hide built for years of digging, kneeling, and weather Universal belt fit: the 3 inch belt loop clears standard detecting belts, work belts, and wide leather belts Riveted construction: stress points are reinforced with hardware rather than stitching alone Fits most popular tools: works with common pinpointer models and standard hand diggers, including Lesche and Quest style blades Choosing Left-Sided or Right-Sided Pick the side you dig with, not the side you swing with. Most detectorists swing the detector with one hand and dig with the other, so the sheath should ride on the hip of the hand that reaches for the digger and the pinpointer. If you drop the coil and dig with your right hand, choose Right-Sided. If you dig with your left, choose Left-Sided. Option Left-Sided Right-Sided Worn on Left hip Right hip Best for Left hand diggers Right hand diggers Digger pocket Approximately 3 inches wide Approximately 3 inches wide Pinpointer loop Approximately 2 inches wide Approximately 2 inches wide Belt loop Approximately 3 inches wide Approximately 3 inches wide Serrated hand diggers are also handed.
