Broadhead sharpening demo/class
« on: February 24, 2010, 04:52:00 PM »
Though I haven't been to too many trad events, I think it would be interesting to see a broadhead sharpening demo/class.  Do they have them and I'm just missing out on them?  I usually go to the ATAR event and I'm going to try to be at the one in Denton this year.

just get a KME sharpener for your two blade and watch the video...get a kife sharpener adn you don't need the BH sharpener..video for that too.

DONE and you don't have to leave your house...but it would be nice to share a campfire with some gangers while you are sharpening them though.

I'm a fan of LANSKY. But, KME will do the same job of very sharp broadheads. I went back to a file on my broadheads.

If you know anything about first aid, a sharp cut will heal faster than a dull cut. That's where I was. I had complete pass through's with no blood trail. I went back to a file with a burred edge. Now, I have blood trails. I use my LANSKY on my knives.

Ron is working on some full length videos for sharpening knives, 2 blade and 3 blade broadheads.  Bad news is he is still working on them...Probably Summer...just before hunting season.

I just think it would be interesting to see first hand some of the tricks of the trade and the different technic's people use.  Yeh, I can watch videos/tutorials but sometimes it's not easy to ask a video a question.  You guys know what I'm saying??

I got one on one instructions from Ron last year at Denton Hill when I bought my KME.  Very patient man.

Stay tuned fellas. We're going to be doing a series of how too videos in the next month or so. Knives, 2 blade and 3 blade BHDs. Both free hand, and with jigs.
