My reasoning tells me that this blade will dig in and keep digging in under pressure from the rode and not round out as spoon shaped anchors seem to want to do. Since it is not cupped I would think that mud would fall off more easily when retrieved. The hoop is held on with extra tabs welded to the blade. The tip is quite sharp and is reinforced. The device always rights itself to this position (except one, see below).
