The product, in the report: The defective product is the hook on the Excalibur C2 crank cocking aid. It is plastic and helps to pull the bowstring back to “cock” the crossbow.
On November 14, 2021, my client was using a crossbow manufactured by Excalibur Crossbow, Inc., a Canadian company. The Excalibur C2 crank aid helps to pull back the bowstring to “cock” the bow. As the client was using the crank, one of the plastic hooks broke, causing a piece to fly back and strike the client in the right eye. he is now blind in that eye. On November 20, 2021, just four days after the incident, Excalibur sent the client’s father (purchaser of the original crossbow) replacement hooks that are much beefier. There had been previous complaints of hook failures on Excalibur blogs, of which Excalibur was aware.
