KME Knife or BH for single bevel?
«

March 12, 2010, 01:14:00 PM »
Which sharpener will be best for single bevels and which set of stones (diamond or ceramic)? I'd like to have just one tool for my BH's and knives if possible.
I will be using SteelForce single bevel Ashby style broadheads...
Thanks in advance and sorry if it's been asked already.

Get the knife sharpener then - I have both and they are great but you can do it all with the knife sharperner.
I would just phone them about stone - I have them all (as usual).
I use the coarse diamond (real light pressure though - let the stone do the work) and I then use the fine diamond - then the arkansas stone.
Super sharp then. He I might be coming through california on the way back home....maybe we could have a Corona or three.

IMHO the knife sharpener would work good on your broadhead choice plus you can get your knifes scarey sharp....I went with the 5 stone set and very pleased....plus the service is excellent. Give Ron a call for his input...he is a super guy and very knowledgable.

The only advantage I can see to the KME BH sharpener is if you already have a set of stones/system you want to keep using.
That fits me exactly so I bought the BH sharpener.
I've grown found of the Shapton waterstone I use for straight razors and wanted to keep using them.
If someone else wasn't in the same boat I don't see the advantage of the BH.

The BH sharpner is easier to work with when flipping BH's. I have both and like the knife sharpner for my knives but use the BH sharpner for my BH's.
