Winmau Andy Fordham "The Viking" Atomised Grip 90% Tungsten 24g

Here's a dart similar to the Unicorn Phil Taylor Phase Black Titanium and Target Silica Apollo darts, in terms of shape, the Winmau Andy Fordham "The Viking" Atomised Grip 90% Tungsten. The set that I got was in 24 grams.

The darts come with a set of nylon long white stems and standard Rhino Pro Player Andy Fordham signature flights. The darts come in a basic plastic case.

What I like about this set is the atomised grip which actually helps in holding the dart without making it too aggressive. The darts also have rings right behind the center of gravity, which is where I normally hold my darts.

Dimensions of the dart from Dartscorner:

Length 38.20 mm
Width 8.00 mm

Target Perfect Storm 2 90% Tungsten 23g

Since my impression of Target darts have been good, I got another set. This time it's the Target Perfect Storm 2 90% Tungsten 23g. It has a nice black finish, not a true black, nor as black as my Unicorn Phil Taylor Phase Black Titanium darts. The front has a nice taper similar to a Paul Lim dart. The barrel has rings to help with the grip. For me, the grip is not very aggressive but it won't slip. What's unique to the dart is the Target Storm Point, which, as advertised, gives the look and feel of a one piece dart.

The darts come with a set of nylon short black stems and standard Perfect Storm slot-lock flights. They come without a case,as usual with a Target dart set. At the back of the styrofoam pack is a certificate of guarantee as to the weight of the darts.

Dimensions of the dart from Dartscorner:

Length 51.90 mm
Width 7.00 mm
