Arrow head, O1.

[penvisser]

Practise is important; I wanted 4 grindlines meet each other and then it soon becomes an arrowhead...



O1, 4 mm. Point is about 5 cm from tip to end and 4 cm wide, so its a heavy one.

Made for practise only ! This will not be used outside.

I think they aren't illegal until they are attached to an arrow. (They sell medieval broadheads in most reanactement shops) Anyways, it's a great display of your grinding skills

This is also the case in the UK, bowhunting is illegal, but it not illegal to possess broadheads.

That says nothing about arrows or broadheads

It's a (short, fat) fixed-blade knife with more than one cutting edge.

Hmmm. Not convinced with that one. An arrow is an arrow, not a knife.

This would appear to be the case Ged, and we thought that the knives and sharps laws in the UK were strict

Nice work regardless of legalities !

You actually have very reasonable laws there, for example, you can hunt with airguns and catapults in the uk, which is taboo here.

About the laws, this is from this governement website: http://www.justis.nl/Producten/wetwapensenmunitie/welkewapenszijnverboden/

It says in the list with forbidden stuff:

pijlen met snijdende delen;

Which literally translates into: Arrows with cutting parts.
