First, Welcome to this section of the forum.

I don't know where any pins in that shape would be.

Have you considered making some and applying them to the handle similar to the Scagel knives? He would hammer silver coin material into arrow heads and pin those to the handle. Just a thought.

I would bet if you could take a tube and form the cross section into an arrow head and then create a mosaic filler, you would definitely have a market for them. Sure sounds like a royal pain in the posterior making them   :)

Thanks for the welcome Lin Rhea . First of all I admit my only worth while association with knives is a "Puma Trapper Companion" thats been a part of me for 52 years . It is about to be retired as a friend whose hobby is knife making is gifting me a "Greybarks Bowhunter" (new model) . Jeff of Speartip Knives is graciously allowing my long time bowhunter influines in its design . Hense the pin inquire .
This is as exciting as getting a custom BW bow . LOL

I am thinking a brass, copper or stainless tube with the use of solid thin wire or plastic or whatever you can think of walking around a hobby or hardware store.  fill the tube with the rod/pins in the shape of an arrow head and epoxy.  Challenging but not nearly as impossible and the creating the arrow head shaped tube  - not to mention the micro router perfection to get it in place and not look all boogered up.  I know someone could do it, but not me.
