Medieval Archers Companion Iron Broadtail Arrowhead

The Middle Ages was an extremely violent era in history featuring battles in both Europe and the Holy Land when the crusades, and the crusaders who fought them, were numerous. Feudal Lords and Knights used such weapons as the Bows in different types of warfare. The Medieval Archers Companion Iron Broadtail Arrowhead has inverted points designed to catch flesh and cause agonizing pain upon removal. A barbed arrow is no more damaging than a standard arrow if the head strikes and passes completely through its target. However, if the Medieval Archers Companion Iron Broadtail Arrowhead is halted in mid-body then extracting it is very difficult. The damage originally done by the arrow is inflicted a second time when removing a barbed arrowhead from someones flesh. This means it effectively does double damage.
