I just started shooting the 2 blade Rage this year and so far I'm extremely impressed. The holes are huge and the blood trails are insane! The first deer I shot only went 30 yards so trailing wasn't even an issue. I have heard negative reports about the 3 blades not opening, but I haven't heard of a 2 blade not opening. I really don't see how it could not open unless you were reusing a head with bent blades or something.
