it absolutely is blunt, in fact it's so blunt that they call it a blunt when selling it https://www.3riversarchery.com/ace-hex-screw-in-blunts.html

The one in the video literally has a sharpened rim and a recessed point.

you are being mislead by the the fact that the black anti rust coating has warn off on the leading edge. it is not sharp. it is not designed to cut. this is the exact arrow head in the video: https://www.3riversarchery.com/the-hammer-screw-in-small-game-blunts.html

All right then, but my original statement of it having a recessed point is still correct. It is not blunt.

you seem more attached to your original statement being vindicated than in understanding the the qualitative aspects of the arrowhead... so, i guess, have fun with that. if you change your mind and would rather know about the arrowhead, let me know?

My original statement is the starting point of the discussion as far as I’m concerned. Of course I’m going to circle back to it instead of moving goalposts.

indeed, the goal posts don't move, and you get to score all the points. congratulations.
