I bought it because a friend of mine had one and it felt pretty good when I threw it. My impression when I gripped it was that the barrel is short and thick, so it fits my hand comfortably. Even while throwing, I rarely hold it with the grip out of alignment, and I think I can always throw with the grip in a fixed position.
And when I throw, I find that my hands transfer power much better! Also, in my case, the pixel cut in the center of the ball rests on my thumb when I release it, so it flies with just the right amount of left-handed rotation. It flies with a lot of power, but is very easy to control and throw! The maximum diameter is 7.8mm, which is thick, but grouping is no problem at all. It is 95% tungsten, so I like the texture.
This model is suitable for everyone, but I especially recommend it to those who are looking for a barrel with a tighter cut and heavier weight. It is also recommended for those who just want a barrel that flies well.

I originally used DMC's "Maverick", but I took the plunge and bought this barrel.

As you can see from the reviews, the flight is very good and it is very easy to control and throw.

I use the fitted metal shaft No. 4 flight in shape.

By doing so, the center of gravity is evened out and the flight is stable.
When I compare it with a normal shaft with the same settings, it flies in a parabolic line with a slightly forward center of gravity.

If you are interested in this barrel, please try it out at a store where you can try it out. It is a great barrel with a good design.

I bought it because I wanted a thicker, heavier dart.

It flies amazingly well.
Even when thrown in a straight line, it never stalls and gives the impression of extending at the end.

It features a pixel cut, but the actual grip point is at the rear of the pixel cut.
It feels like a ball being thrown with a zzzzzzzz weight.

It is not a strong cut by any means, but the thickness makes it feel rather strong.
This barrel is recommended for those who are not sure about their grip and are aiming for a smooth flight.

The design is elaborate and the tungsten is 95%, so I think it is a good value for money.

When it was released last year, I was curious about the pixel cut and bought it out of curiosity.
The cut holds up well, for some reason. Is it because of the pixel cut?
Until now, I had to replace the barrel every couple of months because the cut was worn out and the barrel would not hold the cut well.
This barrel has lasted twice as long, half a year. The blue color of the pixelated part has not faded even after half a year, and it is a perfect accent.
I have a feeling that this barrel is easy to throw without any particular habit.

I didn't buy this site, but the feel is that it goes where you throw it. And it flies sharp! The design is also cooler than what I saw in the picture. This is my second barrel and I'm very happy with it.

The barrel has the exact same trajectory as your arm swing.

When you gather, when you pull it out
When you pull it out, you have to do it one at a time.
the palm of your hand will be gouged.
The spiral cut part.

I received it yesterday and here are my immediate impressions after throwing it.
The cut is just right for me, and the feel is exquisite.
The weight is very heavy and you can feel that you are holding the barrel.
The flight is, to put it bluntly, one word.
It has a straightforward and aggressive flight and is very easy to control.
I think the recommended setting is to use the shaft and flights that come with it.
It is indeed a Phil Taylor model.
The pixel cut is in the perfect position, so it is easy to rotate, and I can only say that it has the best hand release.
It is a perfect barrel with absolutely nothing to complain about.

When you hold it, you can feel its solid weight, but the grip is very good.
The ring, shark, and pixel cut are used from the back, but I mainly grip it at the border between the shark and pixel cut, but the pixel cut has a biting feel, and once it leaves my hand, it leaves without any aftertaste, which is very good.

I tried throwing it with the included shaft and flight, and the arrow velocity was very fast, so I think you need to be aware of the angle at which you are flying it, but once you get a handle on it, I don't think there is a flight that is as easy to use.

When you purchase this barrel, you will have a great sense of ownership just because it is "the barrel used by world champions" and it is a beautiful looking blue titanium coated barrel, so you will want to use it for a long time!

Like the Unicorn Phase 5, it has a short barrel, but it has been changed to be very easy to handle.
The most notable feature is the pixel cut in the center of the barrel.
This is the grip position, so it is easy to understand.
It is also thick enough for easy gripping.
Phil himself designed this barrel to be used as a soft barrel, which is understandable.

If you use it with a setting other than the original, you need to set it so that there is no change in balance.
But it is possible to achieve a sharp and direct flight.

It is not recommended for beginners because of its weight.
but intermediate and advanced players can make the most of its special features.
I think a two-finger grip like his is the best choice.

No wonder it's so popular on overseas sites!
The Stewardess model is a little longer, but considering the almost identical flying characteristics, it is as expected of Phil!
