Title: Arrow broadhead

Abstract: A broadhead for an arrow comprising a front ferrule section having one or more longitudinal axial slots for the insertion of blades therein, and further having a rear ferrule section which screws into the front ferrule section in order to secure and lock the rear portion of the blade with said front ferrule section and which further serves to allow the broadhead to be connected to the arrow shaft. The lower rear portion of the blade is tapered at the same angle as is the rear tip of the front ferrule piece. The rear ferrule piece has a collet which is tapered at the same angle as the bottom rear of the blade and the front ferrule section and fits over the blade and rear of the front ferrule so as to secure the three pieces as one. The separate tip of the broadhead has a number of clasps on the rear of its shank which locks the tip into the front ferrule section when the tip is force fitted into said ferrule. The tip has a tapered overlapping portion which is tapered at substantially the same angle as the lower front of the blade and front tip of the forward ferrule section, so that the front section of the blade and ferrule is secured in much the same manner as the rear is by the collet.
