How do you sharpen replacement blade bh's?

[Toby]

In reading some threads I noticed that some of you sharpen the blades in replacement blade type broad heads, such as Magnus, NAP, etc. Just wondering how you do that?

with the low cost of replacement blades, why would you even resharpen them? Replacing the blades on my number one arrow depends on how much I pull it in and out of the quiver. But I usually just switch my number one arrow with the number two arrow, move every arrow forward, and number one now becomes my number four arrow. And this is the arrow I shoot at grouse and what not...Heads like my Muzzy Phantoms or Wasp Sharpshooters, I touch up all the heads every few days, with a tru angle stone...

They do get dull putting them in and out of a quiver. Just thought I read where some guys touch them up to restore the factory edge. Like to save a buck when I can.

KME sharpener will do a great job on most replacement blades unless they have some type of a flange on them. Go to Elknuts videos. He shows how it is done. He also sells the KME!

Thanks WW, I'll take a look.

I shoot the Shuttle T's and use a small round ceramic stick to touch up the blades. Never thought about dulling broad heads taking in and out of a quiver until one night when we where teaching bowhunter ed and we bring out the board with rubber bands stretched on it, put a dull broad head though and then grabbed the first arrow out of the quiver and stuck it though the bands and not much happened. It happened to be the same arrow I had been taking in and out of the quiver all season. Learned a lesson that night myself.
