Abstract

A broadhead including a main body portion and a replaceable blade carrying portion having at least a pair of blades on the blade portion. This structure permits removal and replacement of the blade portion to provide new blades of the same style or provide blades of another selected style. Such a selected style may include pivotally mounted blades which are folded for in-flight and travel and which expand rearwardly upon striking a target to present a large cutting dimension or may include stationary blades of predetermined cutting dimension. This concept allows the user to simply switch from dull to sharp blades or change styles from an expandable to a stationary type broadhead or vice-versa, by simply changing the blade carrying portion while utilizing the same man body portion. The pivotally mounted blades provide a folded, in-flight, position. When this style impacts the target, the blades pivot to their expanded cutting position exposing the cutting edge of each blade. When selecting the stationary style which provides a fixed position blade wherein the cutting edges will always be exposed. In either instance, the blade carrying body is prevented from rotating about the main body portion in the in-flight or target striking position.
