Should be Spot, not pot. Was checking out the broadheads last evening. NAP Spitfire 3 blade mechanicals for crossbow. I was looking at the cutting edge under a light and magnification. Saw a shiny spot which indicates a dull place. When the blade is folded in the cutting edge can contact the body of the point. This can happen during storage if not in a quiver or even when folding the blade after sharpening. I noticed that about all of the blades have this shiny spot. There is very little space between the lock down point and when the blade touches the body of the point. This area is only a few thousands of an inch long. Should this be a concern or is it so minimal not to worry about it? Points have not been shot at anything yet and the arrows are kept in a 4 arrow quiver.
I'm not familiar with the broadhead in question, but I would not be concerned with a small spot like that for the intended purpose of the cutting edge. It's not shaving, it is slicing. A few thousandths is very minimal, a hair is somewhere around .003-.005". The blade is sharp in front and behind so it will not have any effect in performance for slicing through hide/flesh unless it were the entire length of the blade edge.
That was my thought aw well. I don't see any way to keep from it either. Will just be more careful when closing them up I guess.
