Does anyone have any ideas for sharpening single bevel land sharks. There is a topic on the how to's but it is for double bevel. I have bought the sharpening system for the land sharks from their website but I do not feel it gets them sharp enough for me.
The flare at the bottom makes it difficult to get the right angle.
Check the how to section on the main page.And 3R has some videos on the website.

Tim You might try using a diffrent hole on the sharpening system.
I'm sure it could be made to work. However, that system was designed for their dbl. bvl. heads. The angles are quite different. I've had no problems using it with their normal bvl. heads. In fact, I was supprised how well it did work. H
Try a Nicholson file and leather strop, it was recommended to me on here and works great on my single bevel no mercy's

I was wondering if anyone had experience with the KME knife sharpener and the simmons design heads?
Scott, I wondered the same thing. I have the KME broadhead sharpener and it will not work because of the design of the land shark. The curved blade does not get down level on the stone.
Paper wheel system works well, mirror bright, spooky sharp with practice.
This KME product also does a good job on them.
