150 gr. Stinger ?

How do you guys sharpen these or touch them up? The big ferrule seems to be in the way for me?

sorry I was posting to another thread and it ended up here accidently.  I deleted the other part since it didn't deal with stingers!

guess I could add a litte more, remove the bleeder then go with the KME knife sharpner.
They will be sharper than when you bought them.

Doug77,
What degree angle are you sharpening them on?

I just file it down a little to get the angle I want.

I mark mine with a black marker then set the KME knife sharpner just to get the very edge.

The cheapest route, the one I use and it get's them very sharp.  Unscrew the blade and sharpen it with an accusharp knife/whatever sharpener.  It cost me 7$ and I now have a few patches of hair missing on my left arm.

my KME sharpener shows the factory bevel at 23 degree angle.
Chasing my kids and my degree for now but come next fall the critters better look out.  ;)

Roger I agree. Doesn't a 200 grain 1-1/4" wide four blade sound ideal? Hint, Hint to Mike
