make sure to keep a snuffer with the factory angles so you can set up a test between the two of them to see which edge angles are more durable or if there is a difference, and other things like this
Silence over speed.  Heavier arrows never hurt.

finished test and i think i'm onto something.i heated head up until the powder appeared then i dipped it in my secret sauce several times then i shot it through a 55 gallon steel drum...tip didn't bend at all and though she dulled a little i was able to obtain razor sharpness with fewer than five  strokes on the diamond stones i set up at 18 degrees.this is way more fun than a guy should be allowed to have.i also shot a normal head at same drum and pretty much trashed the point..thanks widoweater  :notworthy:
