Since I know these blades get a lot of disscussion here I searched for this topic before posting this, but I can never seem to get my search narrowed down enough. So here I am:

I justgot a pack of 2bladeRage heads this weekend. I was so pumped that as soon as I gotin the truckI opened the package to check'em out. My excitement got the best of me, as when I opened one of the blades from the locked position, it slipped andmy thumb ran accross the blade. Iimmediately grabed my thumb and was ready to start cursing when I looked and realized it hadn't done anything! Not even a mark. I examined all of the blades and they don't look too sharp.

I calledRage and they said that they should be good to go out of the pack and require no sharpening. She said I could return them and trya new batch if I needed to.I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the Rage blades being dull? Also, if you've had to sharpen them, what's the best way todo this?

A dull rage will scare a deer so bad it will slit its own throat and leaving a blood trail a color blind, nearsighted deaf mute could follow in the dark.[8D]

no rage rocks right out pf package 3inch slice in myblack bear

That's about accurate. Not sure why being deaf and mute would help or hinder bloodtrailing......but the rest I'll buy.

And heck....that's (the above)coming from someone who's never tried the head!

I've had rage pass through a deer and cut myself after. They come sharp out of the package. maybe you have a defective pack.

Funny you brought this up, I killed two last year with Rages and didn't notice any problems but last night I was screwing some new ones on my hunting arrows and noticed they were sharp but not as much as my slick tricks according to my scientific rubber band test [:-]. I ran a sharpener across them a time or two and now they're ready to go. They were probably ok to begin with but I like 'em scary sharp

Are you sure that you weren't messing with the blue one? Look out that one is the sharpest. JK

A friend of mine killed two last weekjust by driving past a field they were standing in, and he just had them lying on the truck seat.[:-]

Funny you should say that. My local shop charges $450 for them. $35 for the heads and $415 for the mount

Mine weren't as sharp as they could have been either, but they are still sharp and will def. get the job done...
