Broadhead Trade

[Jason Wesbrock]

#6410

I have the following available for trade. I am primarily interested in Ace heads (old or new) but would entertain other offers.

A: Arrowmate 3-blade (used).
B: Pearson Deadhead (used). I received two of these, both the same model. The unsharpened one weighed 135 grains on my digital scale.
C: Pearson Switchblade (used).
D: Zwickey Delta, Blue (used).
E: Zephyr Scirocco 4-blade (original style, used).
F: Zephyr Tempest 2-blade (original style, unused, unsharpened).

These are all unused, unmounted and unsharpened.

G: Ace Hi-Speed. Older head. 135 grains on my scale.
H: Ace Jet 2-blade.
I: Ace Jet 4-blade.
J: Ace Meteor 2-blade. This is the only screw-in head even made by Ace.
K: Ace Hi-Speed. New head. 100 grains.
L: Ace Standard. New Head. 125 grains.
M: Ace Super Express. New Head. 200 grains.

These are cool. They’re Arrowmate heads, which aren’t very rare. But what’s interesting about them is the packaging. They are sales samples. The packaging says three heads, but they only contain one. These are original, unopened packages. I bought a box of these years ago that came from the estate of a distributor.

I have these in 2-, 3-, and 4-blade models.

Jason:

I want one of each of these packaged heads. I am busy this weekend working on my shop and outlining the next Pope & Young book (I guess I volunteered to be the Editor), but will go through my older Ace heads; I have lots of them. Let me know what you need.

TJ,

I’ll set aside one of each of the packages for you and post a list of the Ace heads I have (it’s a lot shorter list than the ones I’m missing).

The old Ace heads I have are:

Hi-Speed: both paralel tube ferrule and the ones you sold me (older ITF).

Standard: both tapered tube ferrule and parallel tube ferrule.

Jet: both 2- and 4-blade with ITF.

Alaskan 4-blade ITF.

I am heading out of town to scout moose for the next five days and will get to the heads later this month.

I’m interested in a larger, wider Ben Pearson Deadhead broadhead….used is totally fine. There were two sizes, the narrow width and the larger, wider width.
Do you have one for sale?

The only Deadhead I have is the one in the photo, and I’m guessing it’s the smaller model. If you have some measurements, I’ll be happy to compare.

I shipped those three ACE heads out yesterday, Friday, First Class Mail so you should see them about Wednesday. Thanks for the trade.

havent been here in a while and just found this BH trading thread.

I have an Ace Standard 2 with no “ACE” stamp that is mint, never resharpened or shot if anyone is interested.

Hi Trap… how old is that BH?

If I’m not mistaken, the PTF (parallel tube ferrule) was made between the mid-40s and around 1956 or 1957. By that time, Ace went to the TTF (tapered tube ferrule). That lasted for a couple years or so until they switched to the ITF (interlocking tapered ferrule).
