Its a straight barrel dart with a kind of chunky ring grip with a single razor/shark style ring grip in between and at the rear it has two deeply grooved zig zag style lines milled into the barrel. I would say overall its a medium to high medium grip level.

CONCLUSION:
Its not a bad looking dart this one if a little strange with that deep wavy grip on the rear.
In the fingers it kind of felt a little chunky and the grip is curious in that it was sort of smooth and a little grippy all at once, hard to explain but overall I would say its closer to a medium but it looks more aggressive than it is I think. Balance with my front grip was fine and it felt quite comfortable to hold. It was mostly very stable in flight just got a little spin.
Trying from the centre I got less spin and I think it felt just that little better balanced but should be even better for natural centre grippers.
The grip at the rear with the wavy grooves was just that bit too weird for me, it seemed to depend on how your grip interact with the grooves, sometimes it would spin one way then the other, I cant say I liked that grip that much really.
Although it is a straight barrel dart and likely to suit any style of grip I think the rear grip is probably too strange for most so may be just one for front and middle grippers. I think Price grips it around the front anyway and for me it felt a nice dart to throw there Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.
