Arcuately expandable mechanical broadhead

Abstract

The present invention relates to a family of arcuately expandable mechanical broadheads, wherein at least one thin metal strip may be curled around and restrained to the shaft of a broadhead that once released may unfurl into a cutting surface thereby enhancing, and adding to, the wound surface of a target mass.

1 . A mechanical broadhead comprising;
 a. means for operably associating said mechanical broadhead to a distal end opposite a fletching end of an arrow shaft,   b. said mechanical broadhead further comprising at least one cutting blade capable of assuming a retracted/flight state and a deployed/penetration state,   c. means for arcuately expanding said at least one cutting blade from said retracted/flight state to said deployed/penetration state.
