Sharpening System

Postby cnelk » 09 09, 2013 •  [Post 1]

I am in the need of a sharpening system.
Something that I can sharpen my knives and broadheads at home or in the field

I realize there are many types available, anyone have some good options?

I use an Edge Pro. Expensive but it is the best I have ever found. This system can regrind any knife to factory bevel or my own desired angles. However it is not something you take into the field. I use it for home use only (or the camp trailer during the season). With this system I can grind an exact bevel and secondary bevel easily and consistently across the entire length and this thing sharpens to whatever level you desire.

I know Paul used to carry them in his store as I bought one from him. I use the KME Sharpening System.

I have the Arkansas Stone version adn very happy with it. No need for the diamond version.

As far as broadheads, it won't do Snuffers (Or any other 3 blade) It works very well on 2 blade heads and I suspect 4 blade. (I will be testing it on my practice Razortrick head)

KME....... Nothing better. I use the regular KME broadhead sharpener on my Magnus Stingers. It's the best I have found. I never tried the regular KME like Elknut uses but the broadhead sharpener is truly something else to say the least.

I'll guarantee you, your eye lashes will fall off just from looking at your heads after using the KME!
