Winmau Blade 5 and Blade 6 Bristle Dartboards

There is nothing about it that I dont like I love everything about it best dart board i have ever owned worth every penny

Good dart boards would recommend and would buy again.

Love this board. I finally moved up from an old round wire divider board. What a difference! The thin, steeply angled partition blades pretty much eliminate bounce out. Darts stick very well, Ive never had one fall out. I considered a more expensive dual density type board but see no reason or need for one after using this Winmau. Now all I need is no bounce out wire number ring! One more thing, works great with the Winmau Xtreme Surround, absolutely great combination.

Fewer bounce outs and easy to see numbers.

After reading both Amazon reviews and reviews from other websites, I decided to go with this Winmau Blade 5 board. Overall am happy with the initial appearance and playability of the board (no bounce-outs due to the angle and thinness of the spider and the paint lines are real crisp with no bleeding into other numbers), but the board is not self-healing. When I say that, I mean even after 3 days of not playing on this board, I still see the holes from previous games that occurred several days prior. My old board (non-Winmau) is over 20 years old and heals up overnight and I get to start fresh the next day with no prior holes. I am not sure if I got a bad copy or if the quality of Winmau has deteriorated over the years since those reviews were written. The next board purchase I make will not be a Winmau. Sorry, they missed on this one.

Big improvement over my previous board in quality and durability. This board is regulation size, and has worn well so far. Like the fact that I can spin the numbers later when the board gets a lot of holes in certain areas (that would be 1 and 5 from all my misses of 20!). Was easy to mount and stabilize in my dart cabinet. Very little wiggle when removing darts. A little on the pricy side, but will make up for that in won beers and side bets with this quality board.

I wanted a new board that could be used for soft and steel tipped darts. There werent many reviews that confirmed the use of soft tips but I can assure you this board works well with them. The mounting bracket is easy to align and the rear adjustment wheels are very well thought out. With a few twists, the board can be leveled in every direction to any wall surface. Once mounted, its very quiet. My family has thrown thousands of steel and soft tip darts at this board over the last month and theres no sign of wear at all. It still looks new.

The board is of tremendous quality. The holes seal quite well when pulling out the dart. It mounts solidly to the wall and has some adjustability to ensure it rests perfectly flat. The metal dividers are as thin as they could possibly be. The total thickness itself is a couple inches at least, or so it seems. The workmanship is top notch; flawless on the one I bought. Friends comment on how nice it is. DOWNSIDE: The numbers ring is very ordinary (everyone seems to have this same one with the wire numbers), which for me was not good enough. I bought a third party numbers ring (looks like Arial Narrow font) to round out this otherwise perfect dart board. It is perfect now.

Ive always admired the Winmau Blade 5 board at any pub that I have thrown at. Decided to treat myself to a new set-up at home with this great board as well as the Viper Defender square that protects the wall around the board. Was super easy to install an mount, and we were throwing in no time! Excellent purchase and delivery was prompt!

Beat my expectations big time, Had for about a week and not a single Bounce out
