Tusker concorde vs. Dunn Grizzly

[Biathlonman]

Anyone care to compare and contrast these two single bevel options?  Both can be bought sharpened by KME, price is similar, dimensions are similar.  Been thinking of giving single bevels one more try, never had much luck getting them sharp.

Although I am confident the Dunn grizzly is an excellent head, I don't have any hands on experience with them, but I do know a little about the concorde. I bought a few of the older uncoated head blanks, back when they were offered that way, and wore out a few files converting them to right wing single bevels. Good steel, take and hold a good edge, mount straight and spin very well, and never had a problem with the way they fly. That being said, never hunted with them because I prefer a wider broadhead than the Concorde or Grizzly.
Never had a problem sharpening single bevels. Work the beveled edge until you get a small burr the entire lenght of the head, then flip it over and , gently remove the burr. Then I usually flip it back over and drag it across an extra fine diamond stone a time or two, and it's a done deal.

Have both on some arrows heading to Colorado in less than 48 hours.   Both nice heads.  Have not shot a Griz into amything yet... but having said that, it seems to be a small touch better made broadhead.  If it works well for me this year, I think I may switch over.

Grizzly Likes - smooth taper with no ridges or bumps.  Nice steel that sharpened great.  No idea how long that edge will stay.  No reason to think it wont.

Concord Likes - tough, tough, tough and holds an edge.

Like you said, size, weight, angle, bevel, cost... both nearly the same.  No advantage one to the other.

I would go with the Grizzly because I don't like the way the concord's ferrule creates a bump.

I killed an average sized bear with the Concorde BH which left a decent blood trail. Most impressive was that the head shattered the off side upper leg bone and gave complete penetration.

I have only used the Tusker of the two Broad heads mentioned. Tusker is a lot of work to sharpen unless you get them from Ron @ KME. Once sharp, they stay sharp long and touch up easily.

I just returned from Africa, used the Grizzly Kodiak on several of the animals I took. I sharpened the heads myself with a KME sharpner, easy to get sharp now that they come with a 25 deg. bevel. I was shooting a 56# bow and had complete penetration on everyhting except a Wildebeest that I shot quartering away and hit the offside shoulder, massive bloodtrails that we did not need, everything fell in sight of the blind. Never used the concord, I'm sure it's a good head, but I can tell you for sure the Grizzly is a GREAT Head.  RW
