Fixed Blade Broadhead Recommendations

I’m opening myself to both praise and ridicule from all camps of the broadhead cult here, but I have shot G5 Montecs for 10 years and they’re not leaving my setup anytime soon. They’re sharp outta the box, they’re very easy to sharpen on a flat stone, they impact within an inch of my field points, and I have never pulled one out of the dirt or a tree trunk that wasn’t immediately re-sharpenable or was dinged up beyond repair. As a matter of fact, the broadheads are the only parts of my arrows that have made it out of the deer completely unscathed. One piece of metal, consistency of construction, weight, sharpness between packages is exemplary, and whatever they hit will get cut.

I'm very strongly considering going with montecs next year. Worked great on the turkey I shot with one. I'd add price and availability to the list of upsides to them.
 
I like the Magnus Stinger two blade cut on contact out of my recurve, but with my Wicked Ridge M370 crossbow I have had great results with the SEVR 1.5 Robusto broadheads.

Second this. Fixed blades are the way to go with crossbows. I just took a doe with one of these on Saturday. Full pass through right into the dirt and broadhead looks perfectly fine. Shooting a Barnett XP370.
 
Kudu points fly like field points, and are relatively cheap. A2 sawtooth fly very similarly and are only a few bucks more. I've killed a bunch of deer with kudus and this year I killed 2 buck, 5 pigs with the A2. I will continue to use both and plan on stocking up on both
