I wanted to let everybody know that we have all four Cutthroat Broadhead weights shipping now, in both right and left bevel.
Glue-on broadheads come in weights of 160gr, and 190gr.
Screw-in broadheads come in weights of 200gr and 250gr.
We have done a bit of a soft roll-out and have chosen not to advertise anywhere but on our Facebook page and here at TradGang. We were afraid that our customer service would suffer if we could not keep up with demand. That has happened, we are experiencing some growing pains with our business in general, let alone with the broadheads. But we are working as fast and as hard as we can to ship orders.
We were initially planning to have more weights available before elk season arrived, but that might not happen as fast as we hoped.
I have a website set up for Cutthroat Broadheads. You can order them at RMSGear.com, or by giving us a phone call.

Thanks for the update. I placed a order for some almost a week ago and hadn't heard anything. I'm looking forward to giving them a try.
-
Fred, you must have barely missed our last batch of shipments. Our next batch should be shipping early next week.
-
Great, thanks again!
-
I can't wait to try these out!
-
Yep i've got some 190 grain glue on coming that I can't wait to try out.
-
Can't wait to try them, I went with the 190 glue on with a 45 AL adapter or the 50 Titanium.
-
Those look great!
-
Sweet lookin head.
-
Just placed my order.......
-
Just placed an order for some 190's
-
I switched over to the Cutthroats this year.

Got an email today. My 160 grain Cutthroats are on the way.
-
Yes, 190s with 100gr inserts. add some glue and I should be right at 300. so glad the bigger blades came out.
-
I just ordered another pack of 200's. I love them and hope to slide one through an elk this September. They are hitting the bullseye at 20 yds with my field points. Can't ask for more.
-
Tom, I probably missed this previously, but any plans for a 175 gr. screw-in model or is 200 as low as you plan on going?
-
Jordan - Yes, we have plans to go lower. Not sure yet exactly what weights we can hit but it is definitely in our future plans.
-
Thanks, Tom. My buddy Jason just told me he's got some 200s coming so I'm looking forward to seeing them perform this fall.
-
These will be leading my arrows through the air this year.
-
OK, I couldn't resist. Just placed an order for 6 250 grain left bevels.
-
I just got some 190's mounted on my cedar shafts for upcoming moose hunt. So far I'm impressed.
-
Those look very well built!

-
This may be a stupid question as I am new to shooting woodies and glue-ons, but will these fit 11/32 shafts?
-
They fit 11/32 perfectly
-
Ok... another stupid question. Am I correct in assuming for left-wing feathers I would want left bevel broadhead?
-
Yep - Left wing will spin the arrow counter-clockwise (looking at the arrow from your bow after the shot) so you will want a left bevel head to get the maximum effect on the rotation and the classic "S" cut as the broadhead makes its way through.
Anyone know the kind of steel these are made out of and how do they sharpen with just a file? I like to file sharpen and then maybe finish off with a ceramic stick and strop.

These are awesome broadheads guys. I've been shooting them for a week and cant wait to put one of the 250's through a couple sets of elk ribs this fall. They are very well built, I like the ferrule too, which has a profile that looks like it will move the least amount of material. The ferrule is also quite low profile, making sharpening a steeper bevel easier as it doesn't get in the way for the stone/stick/fie. Finally, they are teflon coated!!! Great, well designed head. When they get a 300 gr screw in I'll be getting another dozen.
And like others, for whatever reason they are the sharpest I've ever had a head. Using a kme knife sharpener and cardboard

It might say on the blog about them on the rmsgear web site. Or send an email to highplains and ask, think it's [email protected]
-
I have mine shaving, excited to use them.
However, that little point on the 'tanto' end isn't sharp. Do you guys worry about sharpening that spot? It seems like a pretty vital portion to need sharp, but I may be naive?
-
Anybody? Ttt
-
Elkbreath,I haven't used the Cuttthroats but with similar single bevel heads,I sharpen the tips.How much difference it makes,I haven't a clue but it takes very little time and may help a little so...
-
I thought the same thing,and talked to RMSG. They sharpened them for me when they got them in.
-
Thanks guys, ill give it a go. Have to free hand it, but it's such a small portion that I think I can get it done. thx
-
I just freehanded the tip too. It only took a few strokes with the file.
-
Perhaps the guys from RMSG can chime in with pointers for sharpening the tanto tip? I've used the KME Knife Sharpener for the main edges- not sure best way to handle the tanto tips?
-
I talked to Ron at KME and he said don't worry to much about that Tanto Tip. Said majority of the trama caused by the BH comes from behind the tip. I'm like you guys, I like to give it a couple strokes at least.
-
I'm just giving it some grab power with the file, and a strop. can't hurt
-
Drag the tips on a file and they get sharp. Just did 6 in no time.
