125 gr single bevel screw in?
« on: March 11, 2013, 12:00:00 AM »
Is there anyone that makes a screw in single bevel in 125 grains?  The only one I've found is The Helix. I like the design, but I'm worried about sharpening them with the blade design they have. Anyone else make a 125 grainer, or has anyone sharpened the Helix's?

I believe Outback Supreme makes one, but you'll need to buy them on line from Australia to get them.

That's the only one I can think of too.

If you don't mind bumping up to 150 grains that would give you a lot more options like the 120 grain grizzly on a short aluminum adapter or the 150 grain Eclipse Werewolves. At 125 grains the only single bevel 2 blades I am aware of are the Helix and the samurai and masaii heads ABS makes.

We do make a 125 grain screw-in.  We're working with a company now to do our sharpening for us, which should make for a very sharp, very consistent head right out of the package.

I've been using the Helix in 100, 125, and this year in 200 grains. I used them the past three years. Five deer have found them highly allergic.

I will admit though that they are more difficult for  me to sharpen than 2-blades.  They fly great and I love the penetration and blood-trail.  Gotta match the Helix with the feather wing though. RW requires RH Helix and vice-versa.

I just picked up a pack of Eclipse single bevels at the Backcountry Hunter and Angler rendezvous.  They are very high quality, and Blake is a fine guy who stands behind his product with a terrific warranty.  I know half a dozen people here who use them exclusively.  They sharpen up without issue.

Blake's dad co-publishes TBM and is another guy I think highly of.

Strickland makes a sharpener for the Helix. Has anyone tried it?
