Magnus IMO are the best place to start to learn sharpening, they have an excellent grind and take little effort to sharpen.  We have 6 packs starting at $20.99 so a great value too.  We also have some Magnus 4 blades on clearance for $19 shipped in the sponsor's classifieds.  We also have the Magnus screw in heads, the 140 2 blade already has adapters installed and is an excellent head at $23.99 per 6.

STOS are the same way, great heads but a bit more pricey.

Most traditional style heads are very good heads, but some take more effort than others to sharpen.  Zwickey, Grizzly and Eclipse are all outstanding heads in there own right but take more skill to sharpen than Magnus.

Good hunting whatever you choose, get them sharp and flying straight, put them where they belong and you'll be grilling!

I second the Magnus or Zwickey both easy to sharpen and very tough heads, I have killed a bunch of animals with both.

Super nice---a bunch more money, but they last a long time and leave a HUGE hole.

Just my 2cents worth, but after trying most of the popular cut on contact 2 blades I settled on Grizzly 160gr broadheads. EASY to sharpen only one edge not 2  . Almost a 3 to 1 length to width ratio.VERY rugged and according to Asby reports some of the best penetration out there.Others I like are Eclipse 145 and the old gungy green bears.

I dealt with this issue this past year and came to the conclusion that that the Magnus 2-Blade was the head for me. Its an inexpensive broadhaed with a lifetime guarantee that is easily sharpened with an accusharp knife sharpener to a shaving edge in minutes. Definetely a great choice for those out there who struggle with sharpening(like me).
