What kind of Broadheads are these?

[Drew]

I was given some older broadheads can anyone tell me what kind they are?
 

From left to right..
#1. Olive green 2 blade 2-3/4" long has a circle with M-A stamped in it.
#2. Black 3 blade 2-1/4" long has a H stamped between the blades on all sides.
#3. Black 2 blade with bleeder 3" long no marks.

I'm guessing all these are from the 70's, about the time the guy that gave them to me stop bowhunting.

Should I use them?

From Left to right
M-A 2
Howard Hill 3 blade later rip off became the Bodkin
Hilbre(looks like)

[George D. Stout]

Number two is a Hi-Precision broadhead.  I used them when I first started hunting.  Number 1 is a MA-2,  and number 3 appears to be an Arrowmate that Shakespeare used on some of their early arrows.  It's not a Hilbre...I lightened up the photo to get a better look.

When you take photos like that, don't use a white background....it fools the camera shutter into reading the background and it shuts down the f-stop.  Use a darker background to absorb flash.

What caught my eye was your home town, St Johns Michigan....awesome place!!

[George D. Stout]

The number two head, was a copy of the Hill's Hornet....not Howard Hill.  It was a different company altogether.  The Hi-Precision and the Bodkin were two different broadheads as well.

Drew:
The head on the left as Geroge said is the MA2 made by Make-all tool and Die Co. West Allis Wisconsin in the mid 1950's
The Middle head is a Hi-Precision made in Orange City, Iowa in the early 1950's
The far right is a Arrowmate four blade made in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the late 1950's thru the mid 1970's yours is a mid 1970's model.

They look strange to me.  I have no idea what they are   :p      

 

[vermonster13]

Must be real hot there to do that to a broadhead Van.

[Roger Norris]

I think the far right is the Hilbre.

[Bonebuster]

I will never be able to collect old broadheads, because I would sharpen that old MA-2 and hunt with it. Thats when steel was steel, like the old
Razorheads, they just get sharp by accident.

The only thing cooler than old bows is old broadheads.

[Drew]

thanks Guys! Wow they are older than I thought.
So should i use them or just put them away??

Thanks Roger...the mint city isn't a bad little town. If your around sometime let me know, we can shoot or grab a drink.

[BamBooBender]

Van, you been watchin "The Ring" too much,    

[aromakr]

Drew:
Just use them, they are very common and not worth much, except for the ones Van has they look like one of a kind

Personally, I wouldn't use that Arrowmate on anything but small game. Plastic ferrules don't hold up very well if you hit bone.

[Charlie Lamb]

Fervently agree with Jason!! The steel in those Arrowmates was awesome... but the plastic ferrule was crap.

[30coupe]

Well said Charlie!  

[aromakr]

He did not ask how good they were, only if he should keep them or use them !!!!! I agree the Arrowmate are not very good.

I looked at the third one again last night...there's no plastic on it, it's all metal.

Drew:
Look again, if you are counting from left to right, the four blade head on the right has a plastic ferrule. Easy to tell take a sharp knife and you will be able to cut a piece off it.
