Single bevel STOS

[snag]

Anyone know when they are coming out with theirs? I sure hope they can keep them less expensive than the others on the market!

Last I heard, they were going to come out after the first of the year. Not sure what retail will be but I doubt that it will be in the $25 for six range. As I recall (could be wrong) they'er going to be available in 200 gr. and 250 gr. but don't quote me on that.

Snag -- I hear early spring, maybe. Several weights, left and right bevel, Tanto points, etc. I doubt they'll be cheap, but can't imagine they approach the price of Steel Force or AK. Meanwhile, you might be able to get Sharpster (Ron) at KME to make you some up custom from factory blanks. I'm not sure where he is on that but I got a couple of prototype "rejects" and am quite impressed with edge and flight. I'm advising friends (and myself) not to rush to buy these first (I hear excellent) "Ashby" heads, but wait for some of the several other manufacturers to show us what they can do. That's my plan -- hold off until summer to decide, since a quiverful of broadheads have now become a serious investment.

I agree Dave. I love the STOS heads and can wait to see what they do. I just can't justify laying down $80+ for 3 heads....

I've been messing around with my belt sander and some old Magnus Mag I's and some original Journeyman heads. Using the KME jig and a gentle touch you can easily convert almost any two blade head into a single bevel. After the season is over, Dec. 15, I'll do a pictorial. It is so simple that I impressed myself. The secret is the KME sharpening jig.

I asked Todd at STOS and he said late Spring-early Summer. Anything good is worth waiting for!
