I found a match in the ABCC Fish Point Master List, 1958 Aqua-Killer manufactured by Midwestern Engineering.

Thanks Rick...Shane I thought it was pretty cool myself.I found it at a flea market.A guy had a few dozen arrows in a box & I discovered this in the bottom.I've always been a bow collector but a growing interest in broadheads is coming on slow but sure....

Rick...you could have a decent display of Michigan broadheads. I found this while searching broadhead pictures. My guess, this is Bill Hinkleys.

Yea, I tried to get ahold of Bill.I have a box of Lafond broadheads I thought he would be interested in but he didn't get back with me. Hope he's OK.I also have a Wayside bow I thought he would be interested in may he will call later.

Rick,
I am very glad that I do not have the broadhead addiction also. I will try and find out what I have once in a while when I get arrows with them. The price on the collectors book has kept me from going any further. I am sure I would be hunting them down to support my expensive Bear collecting addiction. Am tempted to take a trip to Highgate, VT with a metal detector around a certain plant that was once a manufacturer in the 50's ;o)
