These darts are pretty amazing. They are very sharp and well made. The tips are much larger than I expected. They weigh a little more than the standard broadhead but it doesn't really compromise the distance you can shoot them.They can easily kill small game and larger game if the shot is well placed. Good to have on hand for those just in case moments.

Exactly what I was seeking AND exactly as advertised. Also, very quick delivery, excellent quality and all at a competitive price. I couldn't possibly expect a better transaction. Simply perfect.

Most accurate I have found at the present time.

These will go so deep into wood that they are extremely hard to get out

I tested these using my own 5 foot blowgun made from a straight piece of EMT conduit and then polished internally with a homemade bore polisher and my variable speed drill.

A simple test of just the foam board target with the Cold Steel razor broadhead darts was interesting as the lightweight and slim Cold Steel dart went through the foam and ejected the cone when slamming into the foam board.

The Cold Steel razor broadhead darts went through a 2 inch thick foam target, through three loosely stacked layers of cardboard and into a pine board backing set about an inch behind the cardboard.

There are no burrs to snag things at the transition between blade and shaft so these darts pierce deeper and more efficiently into the targets however that sanding process is inconsistent between each dart.

The blade edges are not as sharp as other razor tip broadhead darts and the broadheads seem to bend fairly easy in my layered targets at the transition point from blade to shaft.

One thing to note about these darts is that the tip sharpness is great but the blade edges are not as sharp as a razor blade, however the edges do hold up fairly well to multiple uses regardless of the darts bending in targets from the power of my blowgun.

Rotating while looking down the length of each dart had revealed bent darts for about 70 percent of them so I used pliers with tape over the jaws to bend them back straight as most of the darts were slightly bent or offset in the flat packaging so I rotated them while facing a light colored surface to find the arches of the darts and then used pliers to lightly bend them as straight as you can prior to use to enhance precision down range.

The dart tips didn't have as many burrs as I had expected.

Close range performance was great while the impact power seems to fall off a bit past 40 yards, possibly from the light weight of the darts combined with the steep angle of the cone fletching produces a parachute effect with drag.

Mass is like a battery for energy and these darts are a little lighter than I had hoped.

I've been making my own hot forged spear point darts from bicycle spokes, heavy music wire and stainless steel wire since the 1990's and from what I've experienced, these are a pretty decent design, but a lot of the darts are bent to one side at the weld joints and many are sanded down to one flat side more than the other, as if the alignment were rushed during production (but I can understand the reasons).

You get what you pay for and what I got was a decent quality product with less consistency from dart to dart than I had hoped, however I did get 40 darts where the same price would get me near half of that for some other dart brands and that makes this a good budget purchase.

I didn't like the flat tray style packaging as much as a tube style packaging with a foam insert at the bottom of the tube to protect the darts over the tray style from other brands for the more compact space usage and less of a chance that the package may let the darts spill out if a person trips or stumbles while carrying the package after opening it but I also prefer the use of a separate tube style dart quiver that you can use with a small shoulder sling - personal preference there.

The bottom line is that there aren't a lot of companies making cheaper razor broadhead darts for 0.625" blowguns on the commercial market and these smaller razor broadhead darts fill that gap while being a bit lighter and pierce deeper than some other brands out there, therefore I'm looking forward to buying more of them in the future due to their low unit cost.
