Abstract
An arrowhead includes a penetrating tip at a leading end, an elongated core member having plurality of axially extending slots, and a plurality of cutting blades with an axially extending base of each blade received in a respective slot. The spiral cutting edges of the blades extend spirally in the same direction about the arrowhead and overlap circumferentially in a manner to collectively define a generally circular cutting envelope when the arrowhead rotates in flight.
Claims11
A blade for an arrowhead, comprising a forward end and a rear end, an elongated, axially extending base between said forward end and said rear end, a spiral cutting blade intersecting said axially extending base proximate said forward end, and a rear base extending circumferentially between and intersecting said axially extending base and said spiral cutting edge at said rear end, said rear base being defined by a radius of a circle along its length between said axially extending base and said spiral cutting edge.
An arrowhead having a tip at a forward end, an elongated member having a plurality of axially extending slots, and a plurality of cutting blades, each cutting blade comprising an elongated, axially extending base that is received in a respective slot and a spiral cutting edge, each spiral cutting edge extending spirally about said elongated member and circumferentially overlapping the next adjacent spiral cutting edge to collectively define a circular cutting envelope when the arrowhead rotates.
A blade for an arrowhead, comprising a forward end and a rear end, an elongated, axially extending base between said forward end and said rear end, a spiral cutting blade intersecting said axially extending base proximate said forward end, and a rear base extending circumferentially between and intersecting said axially extending base and said spiral cutting edge at said rear end, said axially extending base extending laterally along a diameter of a circle that is defined by said rear base.
A blade for an arrowhead, comprising a forward end and a rear end, an elongated, axially extending base between said forward end and said rear end, a spiral cutting blade intersecting said axially extending base proximate said forward end, a rear base extending circumferentially between and intersecting said axially extending base and said spiral cutting edge at said rear end, and a connecting web that extends between said axially extending base and said spiral cutting edge at an intermediate location between said forward end and said rear end of said cutting blade.
