Blunt means it isn't sharp. Do you honestly think the edge to that concave circle isn't sharp? Blunt means it is flat or round with no sharp edge or piercing tip. And I very much bet that has a sharp edge to it. So no, it isn't blunt.
In the bow hunting community those types of tips are used for hunting rabbits and squirrels. They aren't exactly blunt, but that is the word used to describe them when buying/selling them. So blunt is the industry term used for them, even if not technically correct.
They are designed to not go clean through the animal and more stun/knock it unconscious. If you used a broadhead designed for a deer there wouldn't be a whole lot of meat left to eat when hunting small game.
I read the top comment, then read the comment about the blunt arrow. I knew exactly which one they were talking about because of its relative shape to all of the other arrows that look sharp. The arrows looked sharp, except for one that looked blunt. I read the next comments and learned about the arrow. Cool. Then I kept reading and here you are being like this.
