Two new sets of darts arrived today. Going to do a quick initial impressions review. Have been on a razor shark grip bend and decided to try the lighter side of darts.

Hi-tech 12gram
Extremely thin darts they are thinner than a pencil. The shark grip feels closer together than comparable darts in the 20 gram range. This makes them feel much gripper.
The craftsmenship of the dart however feels low(although they were cheap). I was having a heck of a time even getting stems to screw in straight. Most of the time they would sit cock-eyed. I semi alleviated this problem by removing o-rings but I shouldn't have had to, and now my stems are already coming loose after very light use.
They do feel very good in the hand though. I was surprised. My stems are almost as long as the barrel it self.
Overall currently i'm rating it a novelty. If it were better constructed I'd consider it a serious dart.
Harrows 18gram fire with metal fit points from nine dart For the weight they are very thick up front. Well balanced toward the front. They feel like phase 5 but much more aggressive. They fly in a similar way.
Incredibly well crafted dart. Is my first harrows dart and I am 100% impressed and will definitely rebuy from them. I was always concerned because they have few sku's and alot look dated but I must say this dart is killer feels very good, and extremely well crafted.
I bought the softie version because I wanted to try the metal fit points and they feel 1000% better than storm points.
