Overview
Built for hunters who want a fixed-blade broadhead with a serviceable edge and a distinctive commemorative release, this limited 1776 Edition pairs the Omega platform with engraved presentation details. Its hybrid bevel geometry, wedge ferrule, and Tanto-style tip are described as a setup for penetration and bone-fracturing performance, while the LAYFLAT sharpening design is intended to make maintenance straightforward without a jig. The Omega with Bleeders version adds a one-piece bleeder blade system, along with a machined collar and O-ring retention system for a tighter fit and consistent alignment. Because this is a preorder item tied to a limited commemorative run, it is best suited for hunters who value a premium fixed-blade option and are comfortable waiting for production and shipment after the preorder window closes.
