Is anyone making Stos heads these days?
:campfire:
Don't believe so. A Zwickey No Mercy is similar,though not as heavy.

Grizzly double bevel is also pretty close, minus the tip profile that is not pointed the same as the STOS or No Mercy. STOS was a fantastic 2 blade head. Always mounted up true with little to no effort, took an edge easily, very accurate and quiet, tough and priced reasonably.
Yep, I really liked those STOS broadheads. The coating on them made them Slicker Than Owl Sh*t, hence the name if I'm not mistaken. :biglaugh:

I ran across those Grizzlies last night after i posted this. May get a few to try out.
Here is a grizzly and STOS and no mercy side by side. I have a few STOS left and kinda been hoarding them. Wish they were still made as well.
I've only got 1 160gr STOS head that was given to me.
I love the design.
As shown, the Zwickey no mercy is close to the same profile but I prefer how the ferrule on the STOS extends closer to the tip.
I found about a 1/2 dz Stos heads. I like those Grizzlies. I'll be getting some.
Think I might have 1 or 2 that I still use for hogs on occasion.

I've been using the grizzly bruins double bevel for a couple of years now. They leave a pretty good blood trail regardless of being a two blade. They are easy to sharpen as said above with the stay sharp system.
