Winmau Blade 5 and Blade 6 Bristle Dartboards

This board is a no brainer. Started playing on this board at a bar and had to buy it to replace my old one at my house. Darts go in the board very easily and in the few rounds I’ve owned my own board, I have not had a single bounce out yet. Board looks great too. 10/10 recommend especially for the price.

Im really enjoying this dartboard. I bought it as an upgrade from the cheap board Ive had for years and it really makes a difference. I would play for a couple of hours on my old board and always have half a dozen darts hit the wires and bounce out. I played on this one for an entire evening and had zero bounce-outs. As some other reviews have mentioned, mine wasnt 100% perfect as far as the surface being completely uniform and smooth, but there were only a few very small spots in the corners of sections that were a little bit off. The minor imperfections make no difference in how it plays, though, and from more than a few feet away you cant even tell. Overall, Im very happy with it.

old board had lots of metal caging surrounding numbers and bull which led to bounce outs......this board is awesome.....leveling discs in rear are perfect

Got this dartboard the other day. Despite the few bad reviews saying that the board they received was messed up etc.. I went with the good ones and ordered it. Looks like I won the gamble because I couldn’t be happier with this board. Not a single blemish. Mounting was super easy and it looks extremely good and professional. I’d recommend this board to anyone

I wasnt to sure about purchasing this item online but I am glad that I did. It is a very well made product and I have not had any darts pop out. Its very well made and everything the seller described.

This is a really solid board, and the 3 mounting knobs are great. I had to use drywall anchors to mount the metal bracket. Couple things: this Blade 5 doesnt heal nearly as well as the Blade 4. I have to heal the holes manually, and its like fixing a divot on a putting green with a tee. Over time will this board get broken in, so that the holes heal? Im using 22 gram Peter Wright Snakebite darts. With heavier darts, its even more pronounced. Could it be the temperature? Its about 60 degrees in my basement where I have the board. I have hardly any bounce-outs with my dart and board combo. I cant see why anyone would buy a board with staples in it ever again. The Blade 4 and 5 are so well made. Its a joy to throw darts for an hour straight and get no bounce-outs. The last thing is the numbers, like the 5 and 3, arent well-formed and need updated, so they become more readable. Seems a lazy execution of the numbers. Maybe someone can tell me why the numbers have to be unclear like that. Otherwise, a great board.

The Blade 5 is an awesome board for the most part BUT at least for me, hasnt held up too well. Im starting to get a lot of bounce outs and even fall outs from any darts that dont enter really solidly. Like when you might not be in top form and your dart comes in at less than full speed and totally straight on etc. It feels like the back layer of sisal has gotten really hard, maybe about 1/4 deep or less from the surface. This pic shows the wear from 6 months of pretty heavy quarantine use...Id say an hour a day averaged out over that time. I was pretty careful with it too in regards to keeping my points burr free. At the end of the day, I think Id only recommend this to you if you told me that you were a casual/infrequent shooter that would keep it a very climate controlled environment (as I sometimes wonder if the salty air where I live has been a factor)? Im gonna try the Dual Core version of this board when I replace it (which will be any day now as Im getting frustrated with the whole thing).

Thank you!

Used today for the first time and seems to be a quality made product. I would recommend this product if you are looking for quality dart board. The product was delivered as promised. I would highly recommend this seller and I would purchase from them again.

This board arrived well packaged in the original carton. The installation was easy (read the directions first) and the unique foot system allows you to get it positioned solidly on the wall to prevent wobbling. The board material is solid and well made, with small wires that provide minimal chance to divert darts. The darts stick well and the board was well painted and looks fantastic. Were very happy with it.
