Rain all day..... All I can do is work on my "Honey Do" list. The Tree and lights are all up now........
I received my new small coil for the Nokta Fors Core last night. I also purchased the Nokta RS Pinpointer. At least I can play with it in the house. It seems to be about an inch deeper than my pro-pointer.
I ordered the F75 LTD2. should receive it next week sometime. I hope t

I have the STANDARD Fors Core with the single stock coil. Listed at Kellyco for $999. I would like to sell it for $650 shipped to anywhere in the lower 48 states.
If you are interested shoot me a PM.
I really like this detector and I am only selling to get the Full Package with the extra coils.

The more I deal with these guys, the more I like them. They now have a left handed Fors Core and Fors Gold. Same price but must be requested. They seem to be very in tune with customer request.

They did not calibrate the coil, they calibrated the electronics to the coil for peak performance. That is often why the stock coil performs better than an aftermarket coil.

I think both units will do great for you. You may also look at the Teknetics T2. A little less money and same performance. For me the Fors Core has an edge in trashy sites and a tad bit deeper. Both units have a small learning curve but not bad.
OK, do your homework and let us know what you decide.

Welcome to the forum. First shop around, never pay advertised price. A lot of great dealers around. For $1500 there are a lot of options. But first , what type of hunting do you do?
Coins, Relics, Beach, gold..... or a combination

Keith, if you decide to split the package up, I would be interested in the extra coils. Just wanted to give a buyer another option at a lower price.

That is impressive. A lot of units do not air test as good as they work in soil. BUT, if you think there is something wrong with it, I will give you a fair price for it.....lol

Keith thanks for the update. It is a hot detector for sure. It is about as close as you can get to PI with a VLF in my opinion. I keep mine next to the door. Makes it easy to grab and go. I like the fact that the audio tells you size and makes it easy to pull those small targets. I plan to get the Fors Gold soon just so I will have all the options they offer. Two tone is killer and deep. Shallow

Great videos and reviews Keith. I am hitting areas that I thought had produced about all that I could get. Now I can pull targets that I felt were masked with the Nokta. And that was with the stock coil. I like it has enough of the features of several detector that I like in one unit. Also like you state before, their service department is equal to or better than anyone's . I would like to s

Steve, Great Report. I am still using the Fors Core and loving it. I starting trying some of the other programs today. Had a lot of fun but did not find anything worth talking about. I am thinking about getting the Fors Gold to add to the Nokta that I Have now. I have been waiting to see what Paul thinks when he gets his. Good luck and keep us informed as you use it more.

There must be a certain CODE between testers who give honest opinions. This includes Keith and Nasa Tom. If you can't say anything good, don't say anything at all. I think this may have been the case with previous versions of the Blistool.
If you read their comments, you can read between the lines.........

I watched this show a few weeks ago on TV. It was posted on Youtube. If you have time it is worth the watch. I was wondering if it is close to Keith?

Congrats on the finds. Makes me happy to know you are getting a lot of good use for the CTX.. Keep us informed of the next hunt also.

Jerry, you should post some references. A lot of guys are a little afraid of a really good deal from someone who is a new member with just 2 post. May help you to make a sell.
Good luck

I had never heard of the unit either. I purchased a used one and I really like it. It seems to be a cross between the CTX depth and the XP's for working in iron.
This is a wheat penny I dug today. It was below 3 hunks of iron. Coin was kinda deep.
Iron was 3 to 4 inches deep, the wheat was in the bottom of the hole 7" deep
