Well here is my report on the Atom razor wire head.
Bow- G 5 Quest QS 31 63 pounds, 28 in draw
Gold tip velocity XT arrows 27 inches, 75 grain head

Scenario- Big mature doe. Missed at 18 yards, over the back. Took a 43 yard shot on her with a tree at the shouler and one at mid section, only a 10 inch hole to shoot thru. Hit her good. Punched hard, distinct rib bone thwack. Great blood watched her stumble fall and get up. She went up hill, I waited for a while. She went gight to a fence and expired....bad part it was 10 feet off a road. As I was tracking(easy track) I heard a truck stop and then peel off. I hoped it wasn't so... it was. Oh well.

Accuracy- They are dead on and have great flight. Seem to have the field point accuracy they claim to have.

Handling- They are user friendly. You can grip them woth come caution without being cut, but slice with them and they WILL cut.

Performance- They are a tough head and hold up as good and better than others I have shot. I put one in the dirt @ 18yrd, held up fine cleaned out in a jif and was ready to go again...not a mark. At 43 yards I hit a big mature doe right behind the shoulder. Complete pass thru with great blood. Arrow was 10 yards back buried in a log. Pulled it out examined it...flawless, ready to go another round. So far a good head, highly
recommended.

Hope this helps someone.
 
Velocity - don't take this wrong but are you saying after driving those blades into the ground and a log you are intending to use them on a deer if you have the chance? They might look good but I assure you they won't shave hair. Jam your knife in the ground or a log and test how sharp it is by trying to slice paper. Sorry brother but you owe it to the animal to replace the blades.
 
Buccaneer.... that's the point of them, they are razor wire not a blade. The titanium wire stays sharp and flexes. Take it and slice with it and it will cut. I've bowhunted for many years and have my share of experience in the outdoors (maybe owning a sucessful guide service helped) and I. Know what I owe to an animal. The design of these are of the stated purpose. If the wire goes bad I will change it.
 
I saw these today at BPS and admit that they looked very interesting. Thanks for the report. Does the package come with a replacement wire or do you have to buy those separately? I wasn't sure.
 
One un-recovered doe shot does not make a good sample group.
Kill a couple dozen with all types of wound chanel experiences complete with autopsy (?) and let me know how they perform.

Thanks for the info so far but I would like to see more data.

102
 
Un recovered because I believe she died at the fencline at a road. I don't think she could cross it. She put three piles of lung blood there...she was picked up before I got there im sure. But 102... I understand you view. For a unique head they are decent. Wish I had the time to shoot dozens to examine and report....not so lucky. But I will report all I can.

And no they dont have extra wire.
 
Thanks Velocity Kills,i appreciate the review.Dont pay any attention to the negativity of some posts.Reviews have to start somewhere.
