The Best Broadheads of 2026

SEVR took its best-selling Ti 2.0 rear-deploy head and added a .75-inch fixed bleeder, pushing total cut past 2.75 inches. The Grade 5 titanium ferrule and Lock-and-Pivot blades carry over, so the main blades still pivot around bone instead of snapping. It's rated to 525 fps, which covers every crossbow on the market right now.

G5's big mechanical is machined entirely from stainless steel — no cast aluminum anywhere — and it shows when you hit a shoulder. Three rear-sliding blades open to a 2-inch cut, held shut in flight by the SnapLock collar. It's the mechanical for people who want Rage-sized holes with G5 build quality, and there's a crossbow-specific version in 100 and 125 grain.

The Trypan NC is Rage's flagship two-blade, and the NC stands for the best thing about it: no collar. Finger-tab blade retention killed the shock collars that used to pop off in quivers and fail at crossbow speeds. You get a full 2-inch cut from .039 stainless blades on a one-piece titanium ferrule, and the entry holes are the kind you can fit a fist in.

The Exodus has barely changed in a decade because it hasn't needed to. The trick is geometry: the head is so compact the 1.25-inch blades tuck inside the length of a field point, so it flies like one. Three .040 stainless blades wrap a hardened steel tip that's genuinely cut-on-contact. It's the fixed head people buy after a mechanical lets them down.

This is the buy-once head. Iron Will grinds the blades from .062 A2 tool steel, cryo-treats and triple-tempers them to 60 HRC, then hand-checks the edges. The tanto tip is patented and the lighter heads ride a Grade 5 titanium ferrule. At $140 a three-pack you're paying five times the Muzzy tax — but these resharpen and come back season after season.

Grim Reaper's spring-loaded front-deploy classic, with a tip that's its own weapon: three mini .015 razors locked into a hardened Trocar point, so it's cutting before the main blades even open. The standard head runs three .035 stainless blades at 1-3/8 inches, but the line sprawls — four cut sizes, four weights, plus new 4-blade Mini Mag versions.

The Trocar is the working-class fixed blade: one-piece stainless ferrule, three .035 blades set on a right helix, and that famous bone-splitting Trocar tip. The helical blade layout spins the arrow like fletching does, which is why this short little head groups well at distance. Nothing exotic, nothing to deploy, nothing to fail.

Four blades, 1-1/8 inch each way, 2-1/4 inches of total cut from a head shorter than your thumbnail. The Magnum's party trick is that a four-blade this compact still flies like a field point from fast compounds. The Alcatraz bladelock holds the .035 Lutz blades in a steel ferrule, and the four-edge tip splits bone instead of skating off it.
