The steels from a circular saw I actually killed my first buck with a Longbow and the first one in velvet I think last week with one of these it was great.

Very nice looking arrows. Why the odd arrow anyways?

Fantastic looking arrows.

I guess my question is how did you cut the heads from circular saw blades?  Is it a simple process or one that involves a tool not many guys have?

I cut them out with a dremel then used a rough file to get the bevel then a finer one to get then shaving sharp. The odd one was from a set of copperhead arrows that was left over

Speak of the devil... I have been wanting to do exactly that lately.  Neat.  I was thinking that a saw blade, preferably well used, would be tempered and make excellent heads.  Is it thick enough that you can file in a single bevel, or did you double bevel them?  Just curious.
