I've had one of these for a while, but have not had too much time to mess with it, but since I am preparing for an upcoming hunt, I decided to try it.  I've got the knife sharpener, which also works for broadheads.  All I can say, is WOW! The thing works flawlessly!  Anyone who has ever had trouble getting a 2 blade head to easily shave hair needs to invest in one of these babies!

You got it!

Just bought one last night myself!  After reading Mr. Lamb's post, I had to.

Been using mine also on some grizzlys. I use the flat of a course 6" grinding wheel to set the bevel. Worked great.

I must need some better stones. I bought one of the BH jigs and tried it on my Smith's diamond stones and I really was not happy with the results. After messing around for 30 minutes, I could get an edge of sorts on my STOS and Magnus, but no where near the results I so often hear about on here. I am able to get my 2-blades much sharper, much faster with a file and croc sticks.

pseman..... i have the broadhead jig and am extremely happy with my 2 blade zwickeys..they are shaving hair nicely.... Here is what worked very good for me.... i bought a 2 sided coarse/fine diamond stone... i use the coarse side until im shaving hairs... make sure the broadhead is clamped so that you are making contact with the blade on the stone and not the underside of the clamp......FLOOD WITH OIL....follow the directions on rons video (its on his website) ...then use the fine side to finish up.... sharpest ive ever had my 2 bladers...It takes some time to get the hang of it..but once you get it....they're sharp !

IMO...Best on the market for the "Sharpening Challenged"...      

yep! the best!!!!

I'm with PSEMAN, I got the knife sharpener and so far I can't get them razor sharp at all. Barely shaving hair, they were sharper before I started.

Pseman and SWP... I'm a little surprized, but like any tool it can take a little getting use to.

Your best bet is to call Ron and he'll have you putting a razor edge on your heads in no time.
Nobody knows better how to use the tool than the man who invented it.

Good or bad, I'd sure like to hear your results after you've had Ron's instruction.

Thanks very much guys,

Pseman and SWP,

Charlie's right, If you're experiencing anything less than ideal results, PLEASE give me a call. I've coached many people through sharpening a knife, BH or both right on the phone and it usually only takes about ten minutes. You guys spent good $ on the sharpeners and I want you to happy you did. If you're not getting the results you expected it's only because I failed to stress a couple critical points in both the written instructions and the video. I answer the phone till 8pm eastern, 7 days and if we can't get your blades plowing hair, I'll happily refund your money.

Now that is customer service!

It's the best way to sharpen a BH I have ever found.  Past years have seen me buy a bench-based wet-grinding system ($$$$) and just about every kind of other sharpening thingamajig you can shake a stick at.

I use the knife sharpener with the Arkansas stones (not the diamond stones) and like others have said, I cannot get a BH as sharp any other way I have ever tried.  The knife sharpener makes it easy to match the bevel on my single-bevel Abowyer BH's and make them truly razor sharp.  It's the last BH sharpening system I think I'll ever buy.

what John say's work for me. But Ron sent me 6- 160 grain single bevel grizzlys that he sharpened for me I will need leather gloves to put them on the arrow.

I've found with the Abowyer Brown Bear heads in the KME it doesn't have the same angle as the head...? It has a steeper angle than the head's edge. It sharpens fine...just not the same angle. Maybe 30 degrees, where the broadhead is 25 degrees...? That sort thing. I have been using the broadhead clamp.

I start out with a synthetic stone that is pretty coarse, then go to a finer stone, then to a fine and then strop.

David,

As Ron will often say, the adjustable angle reading on the KME knife sharpener is a function of the shape of the head and how it is clamped into the holder.

Do I understand your post correctly?  Are you using the KME broadhead clamp instead of the KME knife sharpener on your single bevel heads?  If so then I'm not surprised you find the angles to be different.  The KME broadhead clamp is designed to work with DOUBLE bevel BH's (lower angle) and not single bevel BH's.  The system to use if you're sharpening single bevel BH's is the knife sharpener and not the broadhead sharpener.

Thanks for clarifying that John...makes sense.

I bought the KME knife sharpener up at Denton Hill, but like some of the others above wasn't really getting the kind of results most of you were getting.  After reading this thread last night, including his offer to talk anyone through the process, I called Ron.  Within 10 minutes I had produced the sharpest knife I've ever achieved.  Great product, great guy.

One tip he gave me was to take a felt tip marker and run it down the cutting edge of the knife you're working on.  Then work your stone along the knife edge at whatever you think is the right angle.  If the ink comes off all the way to the cutting edge, continue through the method in his video.  If not, your choices are to continue to work at that angle, with one of the aggressive stones until you actually take enough metal off to achieve that angle, or, assuming you're not devoted to that angle, increase the angle on the stone until you take the ink off cleanly, and then work at that angle.  

I was working at 20 degrees.  Using his method, the blade turned out to be 25 degrees, and was razor sharp within 10 minutes after that adjustment.

Again, great system sold, and backed up, by a great guy.
