Those look awesome! Especially the ones with half of the head grinded. Look very lethal...

They won't bend over at the tip.

 

   

You can dress 'em up with a little damascus too!

Tippit is the man! I want to be able to forge and temper like him when I grow up.

gspbh...

That is a special Ted Fry ebony footed cedar shaft with my forged head.

   

My set up in '08 was a beautiful Eric Ackerman hickory selfbow, Ted's arrow shafts, and my steel.

 

That was the begining of Team Tippit.  The first year every one had to shoot a selfbow to get a tippit broadhead  :)

There is a member on here that goes by the handle ArtB.  He makes some very nice tradepoints.  Hopefully, he'll see this and post some of his pictures.
