I don't really understand how it works. Do the blades move? Are the blades deployed just before impact or after? Or is it basically a sword-wielding boring machine that cuts through the target with sheer speed?

The blades are situated so that in flight they are held closed with a small plastic retaining ring but on impact with the target the blades cam open. It's very low-tech but very effective. Here's some slow-mo shots of mechanicals in action: https://youtu.be/6dv1QySWQ6I https://youtu.be/6dv1QySWQ6I https://youtu.be/PZjEhk-CkKc https://youtu.be/PZjEhk-CkKc
