Flamed Hog!
 
Went on a hog hunt tonight...didn't see the big boar I was waiting for, but I was anxious to try out a new Silver Flame. Got a pass through, arrow broke in the ground on the other side. Tracking job: 0 feet...dropped where I hit it. The Blade looks like brand new and ready to go again. I've been a Slick Trick guy, but the Silver Flames are going to be my new "go to" broadhead. Can't wait for my Illinois hunt this year!

I guess I'm not familiar with the Silver Flame broadheads. What is special about them?

Here is the link: http://www.german-kinetics.com/

Lots of good information regarding their specs and manufacturing. Being of German decent, I know how they obsess about precision. These broadheads are a fine example.

These look real impressive. Wonder how long it will be before they are in the Cabela's catalog? And how much do they cost? I assume the price given was in Euro's. They look like they could cost $20 each.

They are expensive but they are the best made sharpest broadheads out there

I'd say never...they are in very short supply. I believe Markus said he wanted the business primarily as a hobby. I don't think these will ever be mass produced heads. Of course, that is what makes them special...individual care.

RB:

How did the blade hold up? Still razor sharp?

I've heard lots of good talk, but you're the first one I've seen/talked to that has taken game with one. Obviously it worked, but give us some details on how it held up. Tough to resharpen...does it even need to be etc etc.

Thanks, and great work on the hog!

I just checked a conversion chart for Euro/Dollar. Looks like these cost about $80 for a three pack - plus shipping.

Hey SwampCollie...very easy to touch up the blades. I just used an AccuSharp and followed with a little stropping. Good as new and just took my second hog with it...I posted a pic of the exit wound. Good luck.
