Abstract

The present invention provides a mechanical broadhead in which the blades slide within longitudinal channels formed in the ferrule. The blade includes a transverse boss extending from the flanks which are received in a channel formed in the ferrule. A camming surface formed on the inward edge of the blades cooperate with a collar to provide controlled radial movement of the blades as they slide rearwardly within the channel on the ferrule.
