A broadhead for an archery bow. The broadhead includes a member, a first blade, a second blade, and a magnet. The first blade and the second blade are coupled to the member. The first blade and the second blade form a plane. The magnet is at least partially disposed within the member. In some examples, the magnet has a longitudinal axis extending perpendicular to the plane. In some examples, each of the first and second blades have respective cutout regions interfacing the magnet while the broadhead is in a first configuration and/or a second configuration.

An expandable broadhead is provided with a ferrule defining a slot within which one or more blades are moveably mounted to a pin. A retainer in the slot can secure the blades in a closed mode when an arrow associated with the broadhead is shot from an archery bow. The retainer can include a dimple and a blade can include a retainer hole within which the dimple nests to secure the blade. The retainer hole can be common with and/or extend from a mass reducing opening defined by the blade. The dimple can ride over contours of the blade on a path to enter the hole with significantly less force than that to release the dimple and retainer from, and deploy, the blade. The slot can increase in depth beyond the dimple to reduce frictional engagement of the blades with slot sidewalls during deployment. A related method is provided.
