A blunt arrow, with a blunt wooden arrowhead, is used for hunting purposes, specifically when the hunter wants to prevent damage to the skin or fur of the animals they're shooting at. Blunt arrows can knock hard into smaller animals, but they don't deal as much damage as arrows with arrowheads.

Availability

This is one of two arrow types craftable by the player, the other type being the ordinary Arrow. With minimal crafting requirements and decent value (2 blunt arrows are worth one regular arrow or squirrel hide), blunt arrows make a fairly reliable emergency trade good.

Crafting requirements

1 x Slender tree trunk, preferably birch or rowan
An axe or sturdy carving knife
A knife

Up to three blunt arrows can be crafted from a single slender tree trunk, but crafting fewer will still use the entire trunk.

Quality

Quality scale from worst to best: curved, rough, decent, fine, superior

Blunt arrows of the worst quality (curved) are not accepted for trading while bartering.

"Decent" (i.e. average) quality is not indicated by name in-game, and is considered default.

URW Game Encyclopedia description

The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes the blunt arrow thusly:

An arrow with a blunt head used to hunt small game without damaging the hide. Blunt arrows have a large club shaped heads and the whole arrow is usually carved from one piece of wood. Blunt arrow impact can be enough to kill fragile animals immediately, but their ability to knock animals unconscious is just as effective in order to obtain undamaged hides. Blunt arrows are rarely used to shoot anything bigger than a fox as the impact doesn't hurt larger animals that much - unless they are shot to joints or head from a close distance.
