I like the stingers. Cool, but I would recommend something smaller like the thunderheads for fixed blades. If you didn't know, Ted Nugent used Stingers. As for the rages, I would rather use Grim Reapers, but any expandable is fine. Something to consider: 3 blades cut more than 2 and 4 blades cut more than three. That is why I use the Wasp four blade for my fixed blades. Even though they are small (1" diameter), they can really tear them up.
