I have two different size bodkins that I just weighed on my digital grain scale. The smaller one (7/8 inches between the blades at the back) is 102 grains, the larger one ( 1 1/8 inches between the blades at the back) is 132 grains. They have each been sharpened. Each has a 11/32 ferrule. Your friend is right. They sharpen easily and fly good.

Thanks fella's. The ones I was looking at were on **** for 10 bucks. The fella selling them said they wieghed 125-130 gr. on his scale. I figured for 10 bucks I couldn't go wrong for nos broadheads. My buddy used them with great success back in the 80's. These are Whiffen Co. made heads and gold colored. I do know they took a scary sharp edge so I guess I'll be trying them out. Keepem sharp
