What is the cutting dia. on the slick trick 100's?
1" I believe...

i'm using the Rocket Meteorite (out of production), titanium version of the steelhead extreme only solid titanium, .05" blades with a 1.5" cutting diameter.

Got them on closeout for $15 per 3-pack. Liked the solid titanium ferrule with the pathfinder point, and thick blades with a bit more cut than the regular steelheads.

Supposedly some had trouble with blade retention from screw problems, bit all 6 I have seem to be solid, so far so good

1 1/8" x 2 = 2 1/4"s of cut

I may consider giveing them another try this year , they fly sooooo good , but I had a slight problem with them , Im going to try to get them scary sharp , and hope that solves it .

Any sharpening hints for these particuler blades would help the thread , and anyone useing them .

Last year I used vortex minimax heads , with excelent results , The only head to use on windy days for me , they are 2 blades mecanical heads , with 2" of cut .

ijimmy, I understand the 1 1/8" part (does sound right, been a long time since I looked at them), but why the "x 2" part?

After reading 5-Shot's reviews, I think I am going to try the NAP Nitrons this year. The last several years I have used Thunderhead 100's and Shockwave 100's with great success. I am just ready to try somehting new! Even though I would never dream of it, my wife is convinced that I will end up trading her in for a newer model as much upgrading and trading I do with my gear!

Range its basicly 2 cutting blades that have 1 1/8 cut , ie 2 1/4 inches of total cut

Take a muzzy 100 3 blade for instants , 1 3/16" diamiter devided by 2[for the radius] = 19/32 multiplyed by 3 [for number of blades] = 1 25/32 total cutting area

5 shot goes into detail on this on his website

I'm with you now. I thought perhaps you were trying to say the cutting diameter was x 2 for some reason...
