I caught Biggie in my quiver twice last weekend trying to swipe one of those 1 7/8" wide "Whitetail Spliters". That head stole his soul! right marty?

Well, I have not had the opportunity to handle a Silver Flame!  Does anyone have a spare they would be willing to send out??   LOL

Thank you gentlemen.  

I think there are maybe 3 choices; Silver Flame, Stinger or Zephyr.

Sharpest and most dependable for a quick/least painful kill is what the animals deserve.

Which of the above mentioned will hold the best edge from the quiver to the string and achieve that goal? Assuming I've done my part of course!

Appreciate the input,

bought the Muzzy phantoms and steelforce and Stingers recently.The stingers were the sharpest.They shaved hair the easiest.They are all good heads nonetheless and all shaved hair.
   Who knows thier may be variances in sharpness from one head to another from the same company depending on how strict the quality control is.I did buy 3 packs of Stingers and all shaved hair easily.

I second Steelforce.

As with all things in life it's what you did with it at the right time and moment.
The best things in life are not always insight as we tend for things at grasp.      

I've read up on Silver Flames as they seem to be no doubt a superior made product. What German product isn't? Honestly was there ever a better made car for price then the VW Beetle?
Testing by someone here in th past of shooting them at (not into) block walls I beleive and not bending the head. So craftsmenship and quality are there.
But with Trad equipment I feel there a over kill and simply not worth the money.
With a wheely bow at 275fps you would probably pass thru both hind quarters including the bones of an elf and stick into a tree 10yards beyond, walk over pull it out and put back in ya quiver for the next one, but at 160 to 180 fps I don't think so.
There's a point where enough is enough and since only lQQking now it's better IMO to try other blades be it the stinger, or Zephr as you mentioned and see how they work keeping in mind the you could always try others.

Let us know what you choose and pictures of results as this is an exciting time for you for sure.

Definitely Silver Flames - hands down.  As mentioned they aren't cheap, but super scary sharp just the same.
I would put Steelforce a close 2nd, but I have found them not very durable.

I'm with Biggie on this one.

I've never handled a Silver Flame, never will. I'm not trying to bash them, it's just that my belief is that it is absolutely crazy to have to pay that much money for a three pack of broadheads, when you can make other great broadheads deadly sharp at a considerabley lower price for twice as many broadheads.

You may not believe this from my post, but I am definitely not a cheapskate when it comes to my hunting equipment. However, all I need is something that is deadly sharp, for one shot. If I miss, I can touch it up and get it deadly sharp, AGAIN, with no problem.

In answer to the original question, my choice is the Stinger or the Razorcap.

Another vote for Steel force.  Great product, great value and an even greater selection.
