I've used dia sharp stones for years in my woodworking hand tools, glad to see an additional use for them. Good stuff man, glad to see the channel up and going. You'll be great at it.

Are you drawing the broadhead across the stone instead of pushing the cutting edge?

Have you tested a toothier edge vrs a mirror polish? I like to leave some bite on my knives, a mirror edge tends to slide more grab when cutting. I sharpen to 220 then strop the burr just till in comes off. Still hair popping sharp but has some bite to it.

You stop at 220 grit?

Question: do you find if you grind through that laminate (where the body of the blade is folded and brazed or welded) that it weakens the structural integrity of the head at all?

Not at all, there is no way to sharpen the edge full length without doing so. I have often wondered the same thing but never had a fail on the weld line. It’s usually the tip

Mirror polish has less surface area to collect water and oxidize.

Alright I'm all in, lol ordered my cutt throats, KME, and my DMT stones. I suffered last year trying to get my VPA 3blade sharp and it wasn't great but wasn't bad. Then one bent on my buck. Really had to rethink my broadhead.

Is there a reason you pull slack out of jig with fingers instead of tightening knurled knob on back to maintain consistency?

I am putting that video together now. For knife sharpening I love the Edge Pro. For Broadheads I prefer the KME and the DMT Dia Sharp Stones.

Hi Cody, I like the approach you are taking to learn and show the process. I have a few questions. #1 how sharp, is sharp? You showed you can cut hair with a dull broadhead, it even had a bur. #2 how Long does it take you to sharpen a dozen broadheads? looks like it could take hours. Thanks

I like to get heads face shaving sharp. A good set of shapton ceramic glass stones really make sharpening fast as compared to lower cost stones.

Thanks for getting back to me Cody. I still have the Same question, how sharp, is sharp? I’m follicle challenged, therefore I shave my head on a regular basis. A brand new Gillette mock five starts out buttery smooth, can’t even tell it’s cutting the hair, after every shave it gets less and less smooth, however, it still shaves hair, still very sharp, just not buttery smooth sharp. So, to change my question, what criteria or measurement do you use, or is it just a random “ it feels sharp “ Thanks, in my quest to be more lethal. David

Can you detail exactly which stones/paper you use? I want to order everything needed but am not sure on which grits, etc. to get. Detailed specs would be ideal. Thanks!

I put links in the description to the DMT stones. I like 120 Micron, Course, Medium and Fine. I like 3m sharpening paper 1k, 3k, and 5k,. I also use a strop.

back off that black collar on the back of the jig until it is eliminates that slop and you won't have to hold the head back against the jig body
