Yep that's it (eBay app sucks) I'm just after a $5 or less version (basically the same shape but basic materials) its not a life or death item but it has a basic use and added to my little survival kit will just finish it

I'm hoping to find/stumble across a cheap version of the orig one I listed (has a edge)
The card is good, and a possibility on my personal list but making at least another 4 kits (so $30 by 4 for just one item, turns a $40 kit to closer to $100 so...)

($40 is roughly my outlay combined with items around the home and getting a different style ferrite rod)

Credit card size, that is a good thing, check out the seller all very high end stuff (I like his match box and a few bits) and he has a almost indestructible container (but its small)

Can you use standard broadheads? You can get a 6 pack for cheap off amazon. They won't be small but you can take the blades off to pack them down and reassemble when ready to use.

That's a good point, but the idea is a 5 min spare that the head will stay attached if used... And all you need is a straight stick, its more for 2 legged animals and maybe a 4 legged friend, that's not so friendly
The problem with broad heads is they are designed to be screwed into a shaft (the arrow) makeshift a spare with a broad head, runs into the "how do you prevent it from falling out" problem...
If you look close at both eBay items they have a small flange to try and prevent the head been lost, going to keep lookin but I maybe able to just make something similar with a clamp, angle grinder and some steal off cuts, the flange will be a challenge (may even need to grab a die grinder) just the costing to make its funny China hasn't started selling a cheap mild steal version (its all you really need Lol)
I'm hoping I don't need to go down the make my own road, (I like things looking professional, and with something like that, for such a small item it would bug me every little inprofection it has)

The first one has a hole and they show it tied such that I assume it doesn't come off. But pretty expensive.
The card is amazing. You could drill holes in the tangs and whittle a peg and drive it through corresponding holes in the arrow. That would need a drill but a pin vice and a 3mm drill bit weighs nothing.
When I get my forge up and running I'll probably just DIY, OTOH only $25 for the card so why bother.

The card is just a point (prob good enough) the other has a edge...
Idk, i see it a little expensive for a small amount of mild steal??
