Chinadermics from ebay - Way cheaper

[cervidchasers]

These are almost the real deal and much more affordable. I was able to touch up the blades and get them super sharp

to each their own I guess. Of all that goes into killing a deer, there's only 1 thing that actually does the killing. I'm not skimping there.

I hear you but I compared the 3 pack with these and one can  not tell the difference

i shoot Rage Hypos as I'm running out of my other Rage titanium heads. others have said they work okay. I just can't justify buying a China product where they deliberately raped someone's intellectual property. i don't look down on anyone who's trying to save a buck. I get it. My opinion of that stuff is basically f*** China for doing it.

[WNY Bowhunter]

I used them for yrs with great luck. I believe the "real" Feradyne Rage heads also made in China.

[mowin]

I purchased some a few years ago. They came loose in the package with blades open rubbing together.  

Wasn't worth the time for me to resharpen.

I try my hardest to not buy things from China. I know its impossible but I can say I try. So they can keep their fake Rage that they stole the designs for as well as everything else they steal, copy and sell........with no regard to copyrights.

 

Off my soap stand...maybe

As WNYBowhunter stated even the real ones are made in china. I get everyones mindset but its almost impossible not to buy made in china , even the devices we are using to post on this forum are made in China.

I just figured for those who like to save money would be interested in this deal and at the same time make some meat

Oh I get it. I wish more folks would try to avoid it though so it would not be so prevalent. It took me weeks just to find made in USA hunting boots! Same with treestands...etc..

It’s easy to sell things at a much lower cost when you have zero r&d into a product. I don’t care if rages are made in china or not atleast rage came up with the design, the ones the op is buying are stolen copies. I don’t like thief’s and I sure as hell am not going to support them.

[ATbuckhunter]

Only thing id use them for is turkey and shooting ground hogs

I didnt post this as a point of contention. To me its no different than buying that buddy heater on clearance from Wmart

It comes off the same line the actual Rages are made. They are usually not fully heat treated or have some minor spec variation. Some will even come in the actual Rage packaging.

The difference is the buddy heater is still making money on the product they paid to design. Rage isn't making a penny on you buying something they paid to design, market etc that the Chinese have stolen. If you’re ok with it have at it, I’m not.

Not to keen on hitting a deer with a hatchet. Lol. So I  use good old American made muzzy.  Haven't  failed me yet. When I aim. Lol
