Sharpening Simmons Shark broadheads
« on: September 19, 2013, 01:10:00 AM »
Just got some of these in and tuned them.  They fly great but aren't as sharp out of the pack as I want.  Problem is I don't know how to sharpen them evenly.  Will some of you experienced with this head share your tricks, please?

Thanks, God bless and good huntin'

Rada wheel sharpener has been talked about quite a bit lately.   Works for me on everything.   Cheap and almost too easy.

I've tied the steel master and the wheelie sharpener....I must be sharpening impaired or something because I can't get mine sharp enough to shave the hair off my arms and I've watched every video tutorial I can find ! Awesome broad head though !

File then the RADA wheelie sharpened four last night. These were old ones I hear the edge on the new ones is low enough to just use the RADA cant't beat the RADA look up at knife stores on line $5.50 free shipping can't beat that!

There is a tutorial on yout*** from Chris Spikes.  Just type in 'sharpen Simmon's sharks' and it will come up.  He uses a 3 in 1 Hewett Jewel stik and it comes out SHARP!  He also uses a broadhead guide.  I have used this method also and think it is wonderful!

I'm very impressed with the outcome!

Good luck!
