Who else uses the Accusharp by Magnus? Pro's and con's? I just used one on a VPA 2-blade that I've been shooting into foam ,dirt,etc. all year. It had it shaving hair in just a few swipes.

I use it. To me it's a great sharpening tool. Easy to use, and puts a razor edge on a blade. It's hard to beat that! [thumbsup]

For some reason when I use mine it doesn't seem to get my heads as sharp as if I had used a stone...I think I may be doing something wrong. Maybe pressing too hard?

Accusharp works wonderfully on my 160gr. ACE Standard broadheads.

I use a a similiar version, the Redi Edge. I usually start with a mill bastard file and finish it off with this little tool. Works great on Magnus stingers and easy to carry along.

Yup. Posted a bit on it recently- regards to my difficulty with New Grizzlies, KME, and my return to Accusharp with my Magnus heads.

I would rather sharpen a good quality knife on the KME. But for broadheads? I am (re)settled- Accusharp! Quick and a few strops = shaving sharp

Interesting thread. In researching the Accusharp I'm wondering if you are using the Accusharp knife or the broadhead sharpener?
Awaiting your replies... [coffee]
Thanks.
Kevin
