a cleanly cut wound is going to bleed more profusely than a cut made by a dull edge. The dull edge leaves somehwat of a serated edge on the wound, allowing clots to form more quickly.
Agreed, but I doubt there would be a substantial difference in blood trail.
maybe not a substantial difference, but it may give you those last 3 drops of blood thru the thickest cover to where you spot your deer. Im not saying a sharp blade is going to cause a 3ft spray of blood. There isnt really a way to prove weather it does or not but it may give you a little more blood towards the end of the blood trail than if a really dull blade wound had began to clot already. I think next year i may try those montecs, they look super solid and super sharp, and easy to keep sharp.
