Arrowhead Retractor

Quite possibly the most purposeful, elegant, and timeless piece of design by mankind is the arrowhead. This iconic treasure brings back visions of our American identity like nothing else. We add to this legacy with a new age tool that is machined and hand-crafted in Colorado. Instead of stone, we use 6060 aerospace aluminum. This could be the most purposeful and useful tool for any angler.
