In regards to the arrowheads...it is really a matter of personal preference, whether they be pointed or rounded is probably done to accomodate the planned engraving.
Eightbore and Stan are correct regarding the top lever of most Foxes will be slightly left of center when the barrels are not on the action.

Parker VHE that was engraved by Bob Strosin with such a border...scalloping and rebating may have detracted from the overall look.
