A 'Blade Runner' is a nickname for special operative, employed by the Los Angeles Police Department to hunt and 'retire' (kill) any remaining Nexus-6 androids- also known as replicants- who have escaped to Earth from the Off-World colony.
The term 'Blade Runner' was coined for the movie, in the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, all 'Blade Runners' are simply bounty hunters employed by the San Francisco Police Department.
