Amateur review Nov 27, 2010
By D. Bauer These darts seem good to me. I enjoy using them and have played about 20 games with them so far. Make sure to buy extra tips along with this kit as the 8 that come with it only make it 5 games or so. Only negative thing I see is that the end piece that has the tail slot bends easier than I thought it would when the darts hit the floor and I can't bend it back. They still fly fine, though, and the price was right on the kit.

Awesome darts at an affordable price! Dec 09, 2011
By Black Jack The darts are well-crafted and the replacement tips, shafts, and flights are of high quality. The darts significantly improve my accuracy and precision. This is probably the cheapest 90% Tugsten soft-tip darts you can get on the market and the best bang for the buck. Highly recommended!

A good five stars Jul 18, 2011

I'm new to dart throwing and this was the first set I purchased. They are smaller than what I wanted, but after a few throws I quickly got use to them and my game has improved. The only reason I'm giving it four stars and not five, is because the flights are good quality but don't hold up. They will split apart if your throws are close together. That's right! My game improved so much that my throws are so tight that I had to replace the flights. Maybe I will change this rating to a five star...
Great Darts at a Great Price Feb 25, 2012
By afpilot130 Overall, these are the best darts to date that I have thrown. I am not an expert, but I definitely notice a significant difference since I own several sets of darts.
I own several sets of darts, a couple sets of Halex Impact 4.0s (copper plated, 18 grams) and a set of Nickel barrel 20 gram darts. (not high-end darts, more like W-mart specials)
Immediately, I notice that the Arachnid is not only thinner (barrel diameter), but also shorter than the others lengthwise by about an inch. Due to its smaller size, it allows for tighter groupings. Since it is made of 90% tungsten (very dense), the dart can still maintain similar weights of larger darts.
Since the dart is thinner, it may take a little getting used to on the grip for those with large hands (like myself). After throwing several rounds with this dart, I noticed my groupings became a lot tighter and the flight path truer to what I was aiming at (I actually can hit the bullseye and triples more consistently). If you are a "lobber", you might want to switch the flights to standard size and get a heavier dart (I haven't tried throwing this with a standard flight). This is better suited for "straight" throwing. I don't think lobbing a dart is good practice to begin with.
For durability, so far, no tips have broken or flights torn after 20 rounds of cricket (I have carpet, so that may soften the blow). For the review saying that tips broke quickly, its probably because he was throwing the dart at 90 mph, drunk, or terrible at darts (trust me, I've gone through my share of dart tips so I'm just as guilty). Broken tips in no way denotes quality of the rest of the dart. Soft tip darts will always break. They are plastic. Buy a 100 of them. Buy extra flights because they will tear all the time (thin flights last longer than standard flights, in my opinion). If you want to make your flights last longer, buy sturdier flights and/or flight protectors. I also recommend buying rubber O-rings because the barrel will always want to separate from the shaft (metal on metal contact, not just this dart but all soft tip darts).
The case is sufficient for traveling purposes. I don't really travel with the darts, so I don't really care much about the case (I have an arcade style dart board at my house). It contains 3 extra shafts, 7 dart tips, a set of 3 thin flights, and a dart tool.
Price-wise, The average 90% tungsten dart is around $50 (from what I researched), so I thought these were priced really well.
I really enjoy playing with these and I ended up buying another set for my wife. I would recommend these to anyone.
Nice darts for a great price Feb 22, 2012
By Bill T. These are very nice darts and are a great price. While I have only thrown these twice I noticed I was able to get several very nice groupings. They took a couple games to get used to the size and weight but once I did I enjoyed them very much. The one thing I have noticed so far is that I have to keep tightening the shaft as they become loose after a couple of throws. This will be easily remedied with using o-rings.
