KShip85:
Well I have no done much arrow making but am wanting to get into it to have some more primitive arrows to shoot.  With turkey season approaching I was inspired to try and make my own version of a "gobbler guillatine" and ended up with this.  Very easy to make but need to work on it a little as the tip broke off at the taper.  The few shots I took with it seemed to fly pretty good and it has a heck of a cutting cross section to make my life easier going for a neck shot.  A little on the heavy side,  need to use smaller diameter shafts forl one, this one was too big for the glue on field point so I had to sand it a lot to get it to fit.  Need to invest in some 23/64" shafts to match the glue on points.  Well just thought I'd get some input from you pros before I go making some serious ones.  Any advice is appreciated and thanks for looking!

sailordad:
looks deadly enough
to help reduce the weight try cutting just the front 1/4" of the utility blades off and just using that part(the cutting edge)

scattershot:
Maybe not "primitive", but how about sleeving the front 2" or so of the shaft with a section of aluminum shafting, and cut the slots in that as well as the wooden arrow.

whoa!

nugget:
OUCH! that would leave a mark.
