I seen these posted on Facebook by Robert Wagner months ago and I just wanted a set then, they look weird I thought, I will get some, weird is good!

Finally they got released and I searched the German sites for a set and found them at Get-sport.de and placed my order a few weeks ago. They cost approx. 45 euros which is around £36, here is the link to the site: Wagner 23g Delivery from Get-sport was quick with great comms, so a good experience all round Guests cannot see images in the messages.

The darts are also available in 21 and 25 grams, they are 90% tungsten and come in a hard plastic cone case which holds one set of darts and flights. The darts are fitted with short silver painted plastic stems and Robert Wagners "The Magician" flights:

Obviously as can be seen from the pics the darts have probably one of the strangest noses of any dart, but that's why I like them, they are strange! The rest of the barrel is a thinly cut flat ring grip but they feel quite grippy so I would say they are a high medium, but I think the feel of the tungsten is contributing to the grippiness, to me it had a very nice tacky kind of feel which was enhancing the grip even on the smooth part at the front.

Dimensions:

Length:

I was surprised the darts were this long!

Width:

The darts are widest at the rear of the barrel:

Detailed Dimensions:

Weight:

There was 8 hundredths of a gram difference between the lightest and heaviest barrel, still less than a tenth of a gram so not bad really:

Weight of the full setup as supplied:

Balance:

As you can see from the detailed dimensions pic the darts are drilled out nearly 16mm from the rear, so the bulk of the weight is in the middle and it means the darts are not as rear weighted as they look which was a pleasant surprise. Without anything attached the weight is very much in the centre:

With the supplied setup balance moves a little to the rear:

My Grip:

I was not sure where I should grip these but I decided to just try my normal grip first and that's pretty much what I stuck with:

Darts landed mostly tail up but I did get a few that were going in more horizontal than usual:

Conclusion:


Well I really only got these because I thought they looked quite cool and different and because I had the other model of the Wagner darts before, which were very nice (I also have the ones he played with before that too Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images. ). So I admit I never got them because I thought they would work for me.

I was really expecting the darts to be doing all kinds of weird acrobatics with my front grip but was totally surprised to find they actually fly very well!! ???? How the heck is that possible I just don't know?? I did not think I would be able to throw them with my front grip but the strange thing is they only work with my front grip?

I am quite mystified with these to be honest, the front is so thin and has to be the thinnest part of a dart I have held save for the Voks Mosquitoes and it really should feel uncomfortable for me as I usually feel better with thicker barrels but I felt nicely settled holding it at the front and although it felt weird at first it quickly got comfortable.

I am really not sure how serious to take these darts, they fly with a much better balance than you can imagine but whether I would want to make them a long term set to play with I cant say. For me they are just a dart that I feel compelled to throw probably because of the novelty value but also because I'm surprised that they are as stable as they are but overall they are just a fun dart to play with.

That strange little ring at the front is actually something I feel I am pushing against as I throw the dart and I did a close up of the points hitting the board in the video and you can see that they have no issues with deflections. I think its because it is nicely angled so if you hit the edge of a flight it just runs over it.

I have had fun with these darts, much more than I was expecting and I am more than happy just playing with them for that reason, but I think also its kind of a fun challenge trying to get good with such an unusual dart.

Overall these darts are surprisingly nice to play with and probably perform a lot better than you would imagine them too. Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.

Good review as usual Darren- I like the looks of them really, they look like they mean business if you know what I'm saying. 25gm of course would be my choice.

Wow! 16mm deep in the back. That will certainly make the balance point deceiving. Looking at them you would think they are very heavy towards the rear but with the solid nose and length of the dart it's probably more centered than anything.

These barrels are BEGGING for a Storm point. I bet they would look incredible with a flush point. Excellent review there Grip. You're getting quite handy at these things.

I very much would not attempt to fit a storm point!! I would be petrified I break the thing, have you seen how thin it is there! It would look good if it could be fitted though Guests cannot see images in the messages. Please register at the forum by clicking here to see images.
