X block or KME sharpener?
« on: November 20, 2008, 03:21:00 PM »
Like alot of people I've battled with sharpening broadheads.  I am looking at getting an x-mas gift for myself but can't decide between these two sharpeners which are both in 3rivers.  Has anybody tried the new xblock?  Can the KME do any 3 bladed BH.  I am currently shooting zwickey and magnus two blades but am looking at the grizzly heads along with a wensel woodsman.  I've read the latest thread bragging about the KME which I am leaning towards but the Xblock looks pretty awesome as well.

Thanks a bunch and with any luck I'll have some harvest photos to show after Thanksgiving.

ditto i am having the same problems. the kme is supposed to be great but its only flaw is that it cannot sharpen 3 bladers. i am looking for an all purpose sharpener and the x-block looks to be the ticket? is the x-block and all purpose sharpener?

I have tried both, and I still have the X-Block. I think the X-Block does an awesome job sharpening my 2- blades, but it does have another side for sharpening 3 blades. I think you will like it. Duane

Thanks for the info!  I think they are probably both great tools but I can only afford one right now and want to get the most for my $$

Xblock for me buddy! Works well on 2 blades!

KME for myself.  I have great result with it on my Stingers and Phantoms, even do my bleeder blades with it.  Joe
