Title: any tips for simmon's heads and KME knife sharpner
Post by: Houska on September 09, 2013, 10:45:00 PM
Just purchased some sharks and the curved jewel stick. What angle do you guys like and any tips you have found helpful?

Thanks for the help

I have used a Lansky but I have found that the chain saw file that comes with the angle bar attached works the best for me. Like sharpening anything, get the rolled edge on one side then lightly work it back and forth until it is super sharp. Once I get them sharp I strop them using leather scraps. They are very easy to get razor sharp. After they shave I apply Vaseline to the edges and put them in my quiver. Good luck!!!

Its hard to beat a Simmons wheel sharpener for Simmons Broadheads.

27 is what I use .  Seems to hold an edge longer at that angle.
