Factory out of the pack these put a hurtin on my foe last year... I cant imagine how much better it will be after going through this process. Great video.
Thank you for helping me with my homework with this excellent tutorial. I have purchased the sharpening jig, but am having trouble taking the taking out the bleeder blades. Is it possible to do a video on disassembling and reassembling for proper alignment of the head? Again thank you for sharing.
I love the Ser razor black hornets, flies like a field point and is devastating on game. I tried the string method for the serrations without any success. Found some tiny, diamond grit rat tail files on Amazon, way faster and way easier to sharpen the serrations.
Be careful you can oversharpen and ruin the tanto tip. The rolled over edges shown in the beginning is part of the tanto. You get rid of that the tip gets weak. Ive also seen the sharpness test at 175 out of the box.
Tonto tips are overrated, and 175 is garbage. People talk about shaving sharp because it doesn't actually have to be that sharp to cut hair and most people have very low standards for sharpness.
Beginner question so take it easy on me: so does using a leather strop and compound alone do anything? I would buy old heads off eBay and I was under the assumption that using a stroup would ATleast get them back to their original sharpness
It totally depends on the condition of the broadhead. Some can be be taken back to original (or better) with a fair amount of stropping but if there's knicks or rolled edges they'll need sharpening
Sharp is owned by you after you practice with it so out of the box sharp wont mean much. Accuravy is also on you, not the broadhead. If one piece, how many blades do you want? What weight?
Cut throat broadheads , there about $28 a piece , you want quality your going to pay for it ,,,, you want a good head you definitely aren’t going to find them hanging on the shelf at your big box sporting good store!!!!!!!!! I will never ever shoot any type of broadhead that is built around an aluminum ferrule! They bend almost anytime they hit something hard….
I never feel like such a failure as when I try to sharpen my broadheads. I can never do it correctly. I have the guide, Sharpy the edge, and then just proceed to make sandpaper into printer paper.
