The KME broadhead sharpener is about as sharpening stupid proof as it gets for doing single bevel heads.

Heck with a coarse stone I can get any head shaving sharp in a couple of minutes without honing it.  Any I'm very sharpening challenged.  Before the KME products I could take a perfect head and dull it to round in two stokes.  LOL

The mechanics of sharpening are often really misunderstood. It is a good idea for those who don't understand how it all works, and why stropping works, to do a little reading and look at some photos if they can be found in a book or something.  Once I learned, all of my blades are sharp all the time

Thanks for all the input guys.  Love TG.

Call me "stupid."  

Have to be honest- I can hit most blades on an accusharp maybe ten times.  Touch them on ceramics, strop them- and they are shaving sharp in under 5 minutes a blade. I will take that in the field any day of the week! (I did it last night to prove it to myself)    

I am probably just not patient enough.  Have too many other things to do- like go shoot!   :)  

I will add:  I think KME knife sharpener is a TREMENDOUS product. You could not find better construction, service, or ownership. I will continue to use it. But even one of the sharpening experts (I truly mean that- no sarcasm at all!) on this site took an hour to sharpen a Silver flame head for me- and it was never like its original state. I hunt with simplicity- I shoot trad because it was easier for me than techno stuff (Seriously!!) With that, a 1.5 ounce accusharp in my pocket will go with me anywhere in the world- and I have shaving sharp heads- anytime!

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.
