Can anyone tell about the new grind as far as sharpeneing goes? Do they sharpen easily with a file and then stropped to a keen edge? Bill maybesome in put?

I just received a pack of 130 grain.  I use a kme sharpener and they sharpen in no time with the new bevel. Maybe 10 minutes per side, if that.  

I don't know why a file wouldn't work just as fast.

I have some of the new 200 grain Kodiak heads .. they sharpened with little effort .. and WOW they are sharp.

Sure can Chief

Sorry Eddie, if you got the heads from 3 Rivers you will have to send them back to 3 Rivers.

Hey John,its good to see that you and Batman are looking out for me.   :D  

Ron at KME was doing a little sharpening demo. at our booth at Kalamazoo. It took him about 2 min. to get one of our new heads shaving sharp. He was using the KME broadhead sharpener.By the way I can now let the word out that KME is the one grinding our heads.That should help to answer some questions about the new grind.

Just got my new 200s a few mins ago.  They look really fine.  I use a Lansky, but I doubt I'll have any trouble getting them touched right up with it.  Lookin' good.

Bill,
     The responses are exactly what I wanted to hear. I applaud you for saving this head and improving it while at the same time keeping pricing fair. Thanks. I will be ordering soon. I would like to introduce a couple spring gobblers to your new heads come May.

For me a file hasn't worked well. I use my ceramic stones and stropping. The jewel stick however seems like it will work for touch ups.

I just gave one side of one about ten minutes or so with my standard Lansky and got hair popping sharp.  Very satisfying.  An ultra fine hone and then strop would really get it good.  I just wanted to see how they were going to sharpen up and I think they'll be great.  Had to quit and get settled in for the Cats' game on Big Monday though.  Two thumbs up on the new Grizz!!

a 160 grain head has always been my go to weight...in ribteks and snuffers.

ordered the 200 but will likely get some 160s as well to horde for the day when I run low on heads of my current stash.

I have a Lansky so will mess with it to figure out the right way to attach the head and get a good edge.  Looking forward to them already....  :)

Believe in nothing,fall for anything

I think the 200 grain Kodiaks are in a batch being finished up, along with the 160 grain Kodiaks. Should be available within a couple weeks. PM Bill Dunn, or it just may take a day or two for him to get to his e-mail.

call Bill on the phone..that is what he told me to do as the website is not set up for taking orders.  he was just getting ground now and will be a few weeks before ready but is taking pre-orders if you want them as soon as they are ready.  just call his shop and he will take your order....he is eastern standard time.

very nice guy to talk with on phone...
