Default G5 Tekan

I looked at the G5 Tekan...I liked it except it only has two mechanical blades. Does G5 make a 3 blade? If not, besides the Rage or Grim Reaper, or Nap, does anyone wlse make a 3 blade with more than a 1-1/8 to 1 1/2 cutting diameter?

Im looking for 100 gr.

Rocket, innerloc, game tracker, Mar-den/vortex, these are a few that come to mind. You will have to look up the specific models.

Tru-Fire is making those new rear-deploying jobs now too. Pretty nice design. I think they are 1 3/8", and they are nice and sharp.

I like the looks and update of the G5 Tekkan 2. It looks like they just changed it slightly, but I like the new cut on contact tip.

Here is a pic:



The cut on contact tip is 1/2" and is offset from the 1 1/2" diameter of the two blades. So even though not a 3 blade, you will have 2 wound channels.

I think this will be my new broadhead. Shouldn't be any worries if I do my job.

I really like them too. I'm seriously considering selling my rages and getting them for this upcoming season. But then again I'm considering the Grizz Tricks too. Too many broadheads, and not enought deer tags![:@]

The Tekan II is an awesome blade but it is illegal to use in New York as it is a "barbed" blade .
