Shockwave Metal Detection
My name is Feike, and I have been active in the metal detecting hobby for several years now. What started with a simple entry-level model has grown into a true passion. After my first detector, I switched to the Nokta Makro Simplex, and nowadays I really enjoy detecting with the XP Deus II.
Besides detecting itself, I am also active on YouTube under the name Shockwave Metaaldetectie. On my channel, I share my detecting trips, special finds, and adventures in the field, all captured in an atmospheric and professional way. Are you curious about the hobby, or would you simply like to experience some great detecting days? Then be sure to check out my channel!

Nina Jansen
My name is Nina Jansen, I am 20 years old and I am from Overijssel, the Netherlands. Ever since I was ten, I have regularly been exploring forests and other interesting locations with my metal detector. By now, I have gained many years of detecting experience and have become increasingly skilled at knowing what to look for.
My main interest lies in the Second World War. Not only while detecting, but also beyond the hobby itself, I find it incredibly interesting to learn more about this period and to keep the stories behind it alive. And how amazing is it that, more than 80 years later, you can still find tangible remains from that time?
For me, detecting does not end as soon as a find comes out of the ground. In fact, that is where the research really begins. Who used it? Where was it made? Which factory or country did it come from? And what has it been through? Those are the questions that continue to fascinate me. By comparing different finds and researching information, I try to uncover the story behind an object. Sometimes, a small piece of metal suddenly becomes a direct link to a much bigger story.
But I don’t just spend my time wandering around with a metal detector. I also love visiting thrift stores in search of hidden vintage treasures. Old objects with a story behind them are always welcome to join the rest of my collection of old stuff.
My name is Willem Lenting. Together with my wife, I live in the south of Limburg, a region rich in history and archaeological heritage.
I am 31 years old and have been passionate about metal detecting for more than 20 years. At the age of ten, I took my first steps into this fascinating hobby together with my father, who now has more than 40 years of experience.
Over the years, I have spent a lot of time searching for finds from the Second World War and have made some wonderful discoveries along the way. However, my greatest passion lies with older history and genuine antiquities. As a child, I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist. Although that dream never became a reality, my fascination with history, archaeology and uncovering the hidden stories beneath our feet has always remained.
In addition to searching in the field, I spend a great deal of time on historical research. Old maps, aerial photographs, archive material and historical sources help me unravel the history of a location before heading out with my metal detector.
I enjoy sharing my passion for metal detecting, history and remarkable finds on my Instagram page, XPDetectingNL.
