This is a full length, 1 3/8" from throat of tooth to back. Coiled up it is about 20"dia. I had another one here in the shop that I cut many broadheads out of. If somebody wants this just cover the postage and I will send it out.

I sure appreciate the offer. How long did you make the broad heads? It seems like they would be to flexible. Did you heat them in any way. I want to try this,I just watched the video of making them from spoons. I would think saw blades are better steel but wonder about the flex. Thanks. >>>-----> Ken

This saw blade is about .070 which is pretty stout. I cut them out them out of the blade using a dremel tool to a rough shape with abrasive wheel. I then heated them to red hot and let air cool then I finished the shape and edge grind. Reheated and dipped to give color and temper.
