Here is a video I just made that compliments the podcast on broadheads that will be published on monday. This shows how I sharpen my heads, the sharpening system i built (best system i have ever used. use it for my heads and my knives) and a cool way to test sharpness without shaving.

When you started scrubbing back and forth with the file you lost me... A file only cuts in one direction, pushing forward.. When you pull the file back across your work piece you're just dulling your file.

LB_hntr

Pat, you are correct but it lets me move fast and keep the same angle. trying to go fast and resetting the stroke everytime takes longer. When im doing a dozen new broadheads at a time and they all need thier angles changed the scrubbing goes much faster. Thats why i showed that you can do both normal strokes or scrubbing strokes whatever you want to the choice is yours. I have never noticed any dulling to the file. Broadheads are really soft so i dont think they would dull a file.
