Yes. They sell a little repair kit that includes replacement blades, tips, and o-rings. I know a guy who has had some success sharpening them. He made a little jig to give him something to hold the blades while using the diamond stones and stropping.

Yes Dan, the blades are replaceable. I tried to replace the blades on the one I shot my doe with, but the tiny little screw head stripped out. I just straightened out the small bend in the bladeand sharpened it with a diamond impregnated stone. I shot my buck with the same head and sharpened it up and plan on using it again. These heads are pretty tuff and the blades hold up really well.

I was able to replace the blades on 2 heads I used for target practice. But you need to be very careful with the allen wrench stripping out the screw head.

I used to shoot the Hammerheads and they were pretty much a one shot BH. But the Rage heads seem to be better built and can take some abuse and be reused.

They should do a great job on a Turkey.

Yes, they are. And here's another trick....Take your practice head they send with them, and replace those w/ real blades. VOILA! You now have 4 perfectly functioning Rage 2 blade heads.

You'll also need to replace the retaining screw,(hard to find, and the Rage people were of no help) The threads on the screw get nicked upon impact and stripped on removal. I found them in a really large Ace Hardware that had a huge nuts and bolts section.

One thing for sure, you will have to have Dalton replace them for you because there is no way you can work with all those small parts with those enormoursly fat fingers of yours.....BAM![quote]ORIGINAL: bloodcreek
