Old Broadheads
« on: May 03, 2009, 04:05:00 PM »
I bought about a dozen old broadheads around 7-8 years ago and havn't added another to my collection since. If any of you old pharts have any laying around in the way Pm me as at the moment I'm interested in getting a few more, I'm fixing to mount em on some arrow segments for display will post a picture after i'm done. I will buy 1 at a time or several depending on price. I don't even have a Bear Razorhead.  :(   Lets see some of you guys collection.

Bottom head is a Panther 2 made in 1954 in Saginaw, Michigan. It is pictured on page P-2 of "Broadheads 1871-1971 Identification and Rarity Guide, Second Edition".

Bernie...If your looking for Michigan made heads there was over 30 Broadhead Makers in Michigan at one time.

And there was another Panther 2 made in Saginaw,Mi. by Smith Archery, but in 1957 and has convex cutting edge instead of straight edge. It is pictured on page S-7 of "Broadheads 1871-1971 Identification and Rarity Guide, Second Edition".....Bill

Forest..I started mine about 20 years ago, just enough to fill up an old cigar box. Haven't acquired any since then. Need to get them out, see what I have, start collecting again and build a display case.

I just picked up a box full of old arrows off e8ay.  In the group were four old cedar arrows with broadheads.  Three were old bodkins, but one was a broadhead I had never seen.  Being technologically challenged, I cannot post pictures. If someone will e-mail me at [email protected] , I will send pictures to post here.

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.

Thanks for posting the pictures EDDIE.

I know the bottom one is an old BODKIN.

What is the top one.

Anyone got any idea of value or "rareness"

The barbed head is a Crestwood Sabre, Brooklyn, NY. started prod. 1956. It should be stamped above the ferrule SABRE, could be a real light stamping.(Common Head)  The Bod-Kin looks like a C -1957 (Common) :archer:

Jack....it makes it easy when you see these because of the Book Wade has on Broadheads 1871-1971. It can even make me look sorta-smart   :smileystooges:
