Looking for a new broadhead

[TexasStick81]

I just bought a KME knife sharpener today but the Zwickey 4 blades won't work well in them.  I'd like to just hear some feedback on other options.  I'd like something in a screw in around 200g.  I want very solid construction and can go with either a single or double bevel. I'd prefer something without a needle tip that might bend on bone contact.   I set up for a big boar and want to feel confident that I can shoot at the low shoulder and get solid penetration without a BH construction failure.  What would you guys suggest in those specs?

Hey Zane how's it going? You could go with anyones two blade that is a glue on and just figure out what adapter you need to make it 200 grains. Silver Flame has one that is 210 grains. VPA has the Penetrator,they are super tough looking and have a tanto type tip.

Many good broadheads out there with those specs.

I'm currently using VPAs and very happy with them. Strong, easy to sharpen and precision machined...

Tuffhead.

Steel Force Phathead. Super thick steel and their sharpening guarantee is pretty awesome.

This the fun part of arrow building    so many good choices

Go with Simmon's they work best for me.LCH

Take a look at Tim Strickland's Helix broad head. Solid construction, easy to sharpen, and they come in a ton of different weights.

I should specify, the three blades won't work on the knife sharpener so I'm looking at either a 2 blade or one with bleeders that are removable.  Can you sharpen the Simmon's on the KME?

Jeff, I'm looking forward to building some new arrows when the new centaur arrives.  I haven't had to worry about it in awhile because those arrow dynamics fly great with just about any weight on them.

Ron at KME now offers a curved Hewlett 3 sided diamond hone to sharpen concave BH's  like the Simmons heads.

[TxAg]

Let me know what you decide on. I like when we compare notes. I've been doing some experimenting lately in the opposite direction (moving down to 150 gr heads). That Centaur is gona want a stiff arrow.

You'll have to spend less money but Ace Broadheads are made here and are very consistent in quality, ferrule fit and sharpen easily as well.

[Prairie Drifter]

125gr grizzly single bevel and a 75gr insert.

Or, just use what you got but bend the bleeders till they snap off (or bend enough to clear the sharpener).  Use pliers and they snap off just fine.

Simmons Tree Sharks leave BIG holes! do a search for the broadhead carnage thread and you'll see plenty of simmons carnage. The Zwickey 4 blades are easy to sharpen though, take a look on the How to forum and look at Terry's videos of how he sharpens them. It works really well and gets them razor sharp. Just finish with really light strokes with the accusharp.

What do you sharpen the Helix with?

[Over&Under]

VPA's...hard to beat head that has everything you asked for.

Abower broadheads are another option. Great company, tons of options, and strongly built.

My GK Silverflames get nasty sharp on my KME!
