Broadhead ID
« on: January 31, 2012, 06:52:00 AM »
I've been looking around at photos to try to identify these broadheads and can't seem to find them. They have no markings at all. Approx. 1 1/4" x 2 1/2". With the adaptors they weigh in the neighborhood of 180gr.
 
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

Not sure but they look like Wolverines to me. A dbl. bevel made by Grizzly.

early Wolverines designed/marketed by Harry Elburg, The samy guy who brought us the Grizzly and about the same time.  I used them for a while and thought they were a pretty good head.  The steel was kinda soft so it sharpened easily but some folks had tip curling issues with them.

wolverines come with a rounded/curved edge.
These look like wolverines that have been filed to a straight edge.

I'd dare say that looking at the angle of the back of the blade they started off at 160 grains

They are early Wolverines. Before the Wolverine had the curved edge it was strait.
