Wrapping Up The Viper Blitz Dart Review
Overall this line is a definite "buy." The spinning shaft is a nice feature along with the locking holes. It is slim and good quality with a sleek finish.
Overall, we like the darts, but the high amount of tungsten means you need to baby them a bit and make sure you aren't banging them around.
What Others Are Saying About Viper Blitz Darts
By Jacob Johnson
I love these darts, honestly! I wish they came with spare shafts (so I'm giving it 4 stars instead). But, other than that these are great.
By Constantine Socrates
Very well made darts by Viper. I highly recommend these Blitz, or even the Viper V-Factor which a little less expensive. Both are great.
By Philip Franklin
I'm definitely a beginner so these are probably out of my league. But, I love them! The first dart I bought was a tungsten 24g dart from dart world. I was happy with that but then I broke them and got these Viper Blitz darts to replace them. Loving them every second I use them.
