Detailed Breakdown: The Zen Tanto Edge
The Shot Zen Tanto is more than just a dart; it is a masterclass in balance and release. Designed for players who demand consistency without the distraction of an overly aggressive grip, this set is the "Goldilocks" solution for the modern player.
Precision "Softened Pyramid" Grip
Many darts are either too slippery or too sharp. The Tanto solves this with a Hybrid Pyramid Grip. Shot Darts has machined a classic pyramid profile but added a radius to the corners. This gives you:
-
Secure Traction: Zero slip when your hands are warm.
-
Clean Release: No snagging or sticking as the dart leaves your fingers.
-
Versatility: A consistent feel from the nose to the tail, perfect for front, middle, or rear grippers.
90% Tungsten Accuracy
Crafted from premium 90% Tungsten, these barrels are denser and slimmer than standard brass or lower-grade alloy darts. A slimmer barrel allows for tighter grouping on the board, meaning higher scores and fewer bounce-outs. The stunning Black Titanium coating not only looks professional but adds a layer of durability to protect the intricate grip.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the "Pyramid Grip" actually feel like?
It is a level 3/5 grip. Imagine the security of a ring grip but with more contact points. Because Shot softened the edges, it doesn't "bite" your skin like a shark grip, allowing for a very smooth release without slipping.
Are these darts suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. The center-weighted straight barrel is the most neutral and forgiving shape, making it excellent for beginners learning their throw, while the 90% tungsten quality ensures you won't need to upgrade for a long time.
What happens if I order the wrong weight?
We want you to play your best game. If you are unsure, contact our team for advice. For our local Kingston customers, we always recommend visiting us to feel the weight difference between a 23g and 25g dart before purchasing.
