Easy Way to Keep Broadheads Sharp
« on: November 02, 2009, 11:26:00 PM »
I know they sell these through many traditional archery vendors, but I'm cheap and made my own get-up for my two-blade broadheads.  I 'spose guys using hooded quivers with foam don't need this, but for those of us using side and back quivers, our broadheads sure can take a beating.  This methods works especially great for knapped points, preventing them from chipping and dulling.  When I get set up to hunt I just slip the broadheads from their sheaths so they're ready to go.

I recognize the MA-2`s, but the fourth broadhead is different.

Nice set up, thanks for posting.

I put a piece of foam in the bottom of my back quiver and glued it in they don't move around and they stay sharp.

Leather will rust broadheads pretty fast so I would not store them in the sheaths. Same goes for a good knife, don't leave your knife in a leather sheath.
Time spent alone in the woods puts you closer to God.

"Can't" never accomplished anything.

Correct on the leather...I only keep them in the sheaths (and quiver, for that matter) when they're in transport.  Otherwise they are stored on an arrow rack.  Thanks, Bill    :)
